The paper presents a detailed description of the K-theory and K-homology of\nC*-algebras generated by q-normal operators including generators and the index\npairing. The C*-algebras generated by q-normal operators can be viewed as a\nq-deformation of the quantum complex plane. In this sense, we find deformations\nof the classical Bott projections describing complex line bundles over the\n2-sphere, but there are also simpler generators for the K0-groups, for\ninstance 1-dimensional Powers-Rieffel type projections and elementary\nprojections belonging to the C*-algebra. The index pairing between these\nprojections and generators of the even K-homology group is computed, and the\nresult is used to express the K0-classes of the quantized line bundles of any\nwinding number in terms of the other projections.\n
