SEA CHANGE - The story behind the exhibition - APRIL 2021!
Posted by Caroline Valpied on
In January 2020, after a full year of painting and planning, I held my second solo exhibition and that's where I met the talented Tim Freeman. Tim paints landscapes, but while mine could be described as fairly classical, Tim reduces the landscape to flat shapes creating striking, modern artworks. I love his work!
We followed each other on social media for the next 6 months or so and as I flew into full flung panic over COVID-19 and what it would do to my art business, I asked him to consider a joint exhibition with me. Good idea. Scheduled for April 2021...with Nov-Jan being my busiest time of year. Maybe not such a good idea!
Like all things though (when you put in the effort), it's working out. I scheduled myself to paint one painting a week from 1st Jan to end of February. Done. It's quite stressful working this way, but I've always been good with deadlines. So 8 paintings plus 2 small ones from 2020. Tim will show ten too.
If you're wondering how I work with a three year old...the short answer is - I don't. He's in daycare a couple of days a week and in kinder some mornings. I paint during those hours.
And where I paint...well, you won't see any pictures of that! I paint at the end of our garage, shifting my chair to avoid the whipper snipper, sniffing the delicious aromas of damp cut grass from the lawnmower, turning up the music to drown out the hum from the beer fridge!
But I LOVE IT! I love all of it...taking photos out and about, getting excited about them in front of the canvas, promoting my work on social media, talking to kind people at the summer markets, sitting in my space in the garage, mixing colours, making magic. Don't get me wrong, there is a point in every painting where I get stuck, don't know where it's going...and running your own business is HARD, but it's all worth it and I do know how lucky I am.
So thanks Tim for agreeing to this exhibition, and like me, creating your paintings in record time.
Thanks everyone for supporting us artists as we bring more beauty into this world.
I hope you can come to our exhibition!

CRYPTO RECOVERY SPECIALIST 2025 DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY
I run a small digital marketing agency that thrives on innovation and flexibility. One way we tried to stay ahead was by accepting cryptocurrency payments from clients. For many of our international partners crypto was faster, cheaper and far more convenient than traditional banking. Everything was working well until one morning I logged into our business wallet and saw something that made my stomach drop. More than $18,500 worth of ETH was missing. After investigating I discovered that a malware infected browser extension had secretly swapped out wallet addresses. Every time I believed I was sending or receiving secure payments the extension redirected them to a criminal’s wallet. That stolen ETH wasn’t just a digital number on a screen. It was payroll. My employees depend on those funds to support their families and without them I was facing the unthinkable: laying off my team and possibly losing the business we had worked so hard to build. In my panic I searched for help and came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery. From the first moment I contacted them they treated my case like it was urgent because it was. They were professional, responsive and incredibly reassuring. Within hours Digital Tech Guard Recovery launched a full investigation and began tracing the stolen ETH through multiple blockchain addresses. I was updated constantly which gave me confidence that progress was being made. To my surprise, within just a few days Digital Tech Guard Recovery managed to track the stolen funds to an exchange account. Even more impressively they coordinated with the exchange to freeze the wallet before the thief could move the ETH any further. Soon after the funds were officially returned. What I thought was gone forever, the lifeline of my business, had been restored. This proved something to me. Crypto theft does not have to mean the end. With the right expertise recovery is possible. Digital Tech Guard Recovery didn’t just recover my money. They saved my business. Thanks to them I didn’t have to let go of a single employee. My entire team is still working, still creating and still thriving because Digital Tech Guard Recovery gave us a second chance. I can say without hesitation that if you ever find yourself in the nightmare of stolen crypto, Digital Tech Guard Recovery is the partner you need by your side. They turned what could have been a devastating loss into a story of recovery and resilience. you can contact them on WhatsApp: +14438592886

I was introduced to crypto investment by an investor I met on Telegram. I liked the program and decided to join the investment platform. At the beginning, I invested and made profits which I continued doing until the website disappeared.
