My official website, Colourful Magic celebrates its 20th anniversary.
In 2003 I was the first textile designer in Israel to build her own website.
When the collection of the materials and the photographs started even earlier.
I set up my website in order to create international exposure for my artworks in various fields, such as :
Textile Design, Painting, Photography, and more.
In order to create for myself sources of employment, and livelihood first and foremost, exchange legal information and create international connections.
I chose to do so under my real name, Nira Dabush, given to me at birth.
In this way, I put my name on the world map.
In my basic concept, originality, and reliability, while giving mutual respect. An appropriate, accurate approach to myself.
The site and its construction show various developments and all the work on it was done only by me.
I got the inspiration to build a website from my eldest son, who then took a course in website construction and built his first website at the age of eight. Although no one really guided me on building the site. All the work was mine.
While I am learning the work myself, I am busy with various artworks in the studio and at home and am a devoted mother to my two sons. Much more than double duty.
I realized then that I can and want to build my website without any guidance completely independently.
Without knowledge, the basic tools were created intuitively, as well as the capabilities, with a strong desire to create a website, which developed in different stages..
When I planned a website for myself, I did not imagine how much work on a website actually endless.
Work for long days, weeks, months, and even years.
With the ability to understand the internet and website, the years and various developments have made a difference in this understanding as well.
Along with good and surprising things that happened to me in my wanderings on the Internet, to my great regret massive spying and its results prevented and prevent me from continuing to update my website.
I will note that during my extensive work on my site, I enjoyed it, when I see it as a kind of virtual gallery with a permanent and changing display, as an exhibition.
Many times when I work on my official website, I also draw and design in my studio and at home. And of course a devoted mother to my two charming sons.
My two sons find my work as a fine artist and designer very important.
A lot of work was put into the site and done with love, which brought love too often, which partly benefited me, and partly in the long term, less so.
On the site today there are broken links, which were not there before and were not plotted like that.
This is because at times there was triage at other sites, which provided services and were closed or changed purpose.
The site remains under construction, for similar reasons. Nowadays I don't have the time to dedicate and upgrade the site, and I don't want to do it together with obsessive spying.
Along the way of building my website, it was only natural that I became active on the website of various artists.
May we all have a good natural continuity that is constructive and most importantly safe and without spying on the internet and in general.
Thank you for your support over the years.
