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!

HOW TO RECOVER LOST OR STOLEN CRYPTOCURRENCY/BYTEPHANTOM CYBER RECOVERY: My name is Patricia, and like many others, I once believed that losing cryptocurrency to scammers meant it was gone forever. I had read countless stories about people being tricked out of their life savings, and I always thought I was too careful to fall into that trap. Unfortunately, in late 2022, I found myself living that nightmare—and it nearly broke me. I had been investing in crypto since 2019. Over the years, I built a modest but growing portfolio through patience, research, and smart trading. But one careless interaction changed everything. I was lured into a seemingly legitimate trading platform by someone I met through a cryptocurrency discussion group. The website looked real. The team seemed authentic. They even had fake reviews and verifiable-looking documentation. After a few weeks of small test withdrawals, I decided to commit a large sum—over $95,000 worth of Ethereum and Bitcoin. The moment I tried to withdraw the full balance, the platform locked me out. Customer support vanished. Emails bounced back. I watched my wallet get emptied into addresses I didn’t recognize, and I was left with nothing. It was one of the darkest moments of my life. I felt sick to my stomach knowing I had fallen for a scam. Friends and family tried to be supportive, but I could see the disbelief in their eyes. I filed reports with the authorities and my local cybercrime unit, but I was told the chances of recovering crypto were slim to none. I almost gave up. Then I found BytePhantom Cyber Recovery. I came across them while reading a blog on blockchain forensics and fraud recovery. At first, I was hesitant. After everything I had gone through, the last thing I wanted was to be taken advantage of again. But something about BytePhantom stood out—the way they explained their services, the transparency in their process, and the real-life testimonials I saw from people in similar situations. I reached out through their website, and within 24 hours, I received a response from one of their recovery specialists. The communication was clear and professional from the start. They asked for detailed information about my transactions, wallet addresses, and the fraudulent platform I used. They didn’t promise a miracle. Instead, they gave me a realistic overview of what could be done and how they would approach it using advanced blockchain tracing tools. I gave them the go-ahead—and that was the best decision I made. Over the next few weeks, BytePhantom worked tirelessly. They uncovered transaction paths I didn’t even know existed and tracked my stolen crypto across multiple addresses, mixing services, and decentralized platforms. The team provided regular updates, showed me the movement of my funds, and even identified the scammer’s network. Then came the moment I never thought would happen: they successfully recovered approximately 82% of my stolen cryptocurrency and securely transferred it to a newly created cold wallet under my control. I couldn’t believe my eyes. After months of hopelessness, my assets were back—and it felt like a weight had finally been lifted off my chest. What truly set BytePhantom apart was their integrity, transparency, and expertise. They didn’t just help me recover my funds—they helped me regain confidence in the crypto world. They educated me on better wallet security, provided tools to monitor suspicious activity, and made sure I was prepared going forward. To anyone out there who’s lost crypto and thinks it’s over—it’s not. BytePhantom Cyber Recovery has the tools, knowledge, and heart to fight for what’s yours. I’m living proof that recovery is possible, and I will always be grateful to the team that helped me reclaim not only my crypto, but also my peace of mind.
