On Being a Mother and an Artist
Posted by Caroline Valpied on
Once upon a time I had a cute little studio/box room in our house. When our little baby came along, I kept it for a while, but when it was time for baby to have his own room I was shipped out to the garage to paint between the beer fridge and lawn mower (sob). Seriously though, I have tried so hard to keep going with my painting - even buying a nice big playpen to put next to my easel (see below!) because obviously baby was going to be absolutely fine playing next to me while I painted, not needing me at all...
It's really, really tricky to juggle motherhood and art. To be honest, the last thing I felt like doing in the sleep deprived first ten months (yes, ten!!) was putting paint to canvas. Even getting dressed felt like an effort. The best times I found to draw were when he was sleeping...but he has only just started sleeping in his cot (at 13 months). Before that I pushed the pram back and forth with one hand and drew with the other.
This blog is going to be about how I juggle my beloved little being and the relentless pull to create.

The notorious “Bitcoin Bandit” had eluded authorities for years, amassing a massive digital fortune by hacking into cryptocurrency exchanges and digital wallets. But the tides have finally turned, as an elite team of cybersecurity experts and blockchain analysts, known as the “Cyber Genie Hack Pro” has managed to track down and recover money from these hackers and fake crypto exchanges. The operation was a masterclass in high-tech sleuthing, with the team painstakingly tracing the complex web of anonymous transactions and shell companies used by the Bitcoin Bandit to hide his tracks. Through advanced forensic blockchain analysis, intelligent pattern recognition, and sheer dogged determination, they could follow the digital breadcrumbs back to the hacker’s secret lair. Once the crypto bandit’s identity and location were uncovered, a carefully coordinated sting operation was launched, catching the unsuspecting criminal off guard and allowing authorities to seize every last satoshi of his ill-gotten gains. This landmark victory is a major win not just for the victims who will be compensated, but for the entire cryptocurrency community, sending a clear message that even the wiliest cyber-thieves cannot evade justice forever. The “Cyber Genie Hack Pro” team has proven that with enough skill, resources, and perseverance, even the most sophisticated digital heists can be unraveled and the stolen funds returned to their rightful owners. I was a victim of crypto theft, and having given “Cyber genie hack pro” the chance to help, I was glad they did as they promised me. I just wanted to let you know that this professional hacker and private investigators team is always on standby to help you.
