My Little Italy

As a lover all things Italian my other website creation had to be Paintings of Italy bearing in mind that I am an amateur and that this is a little work/hobby thing I hope that you find it enjoyable to read as I have in making it.

Of course the paintings are by Alan Reed as that is our business and I do believe he is an amazing talented Artist - and husband!

My favourite page is the Sketchbook Studies which you can see in a slide show and also Watch Alan Paint.

Italy, Wine and Websites

After a hard days work I decided to make butternut squash risotto. However, when I came to toast off the rice I realised that I had no white wine!!! not like me at all in fact I can’t ever remember having no wine in stock.

Anyway, I discovered that gin would do instead and I’m happy to report that it was a very tasty risotto indeed.

The exciting thing for me this week is that I have been working on my new website www.paintingsofitaly.com this was an experiment as I have not done anything like this before. Although it’s not too professional I am happy that for a first timer it looks okay. Please let me know what you think.
