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 SCAM RECOVERY SUCCESSFUL – A TESTIMONIAL OF LOST PASSWORD TO YOUR DIGITAL WALLET BACK.
My name is Robert Alfred, Am from Australia. I’m sharing my experience in the hope that it helps others who have been victims of crypto scams. A few months ago, I fell victim to a fraudulent crypto investment scheme linked to a broker company. I had invested heavily during a time when Bitcoin prices were rising, thinking it was a good opportunity. Unfortunately, I was scammed out of $120,000 AUD and the broker denied me access to my digital wallet and assets. It was a devastating experience that caused many sleepless nights. Crypto scams are increasingly common and often involve fake trading platforms, phishing attacks, and misleading investment opportunities. In my desperation, a friend from the crypto community recommended Capital Crypto Recovery Service, known for helping victims recover lost or stolen funds. After doing some research and reading multiple positive reviews, I reached out to Capital Crypto Recovery. I provided all the necessary information—wallet addresses, transaction history, and communication logs. Their expert team responded immediately and began investigating. Using advanced blockchain tracking techniques, they were able to trace the stolen Dogecoin, identify the scammer’s wallet, and coordinate with relevant authorities to freeze the funds before they could be moved. Incredibly, within 24 hours, Capital Crypto Recovery successfully recovered the majority of my stolen crypto assets. I was beyond relieved and truly grateful. Their professionalism, transparency, and constant communication throughout the process gave me hope during a very difficult time. If you’ve been a victim of a crypto scam, I highly recommend them with full confidence contacting:

USDT & ETHEREUM RECOVERY EXPERT-HIRE DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY
I was relocating from Colorado to Massachusetts for a promising job opportunity and needed a long-term rental to settle into a stable routine. I began searching through Airbnb for fully furnished apartments that would be comfortable and professional enough for someone starting a new chapter in a new city. After hours of browsing I found a stunning listing in Cambridge that seemed absolutely perfect. It was in a peaceful neighborhood close to my new office and offered everything I needed for a three-month stay. I reached out to the host directly to discuss the arrangement. Since I frequently use crypto for my major transactions I asked if they would accept payment in USDT. The host responded positively and claimed they had recently started taking crypto for extended bookings. We finalized an agreement for $120000 covering the full three-month rental period. Confident in the process I transferred the funds and sent the transaction screenshot along with what appeared to be a valid smart contract hash. Everything seemed secure and professional. But the very next day I received a message saying the payment had not arrived. I double checked the wallet address I had used and confirmed it matched what was provided. I assumed it might be a minor network delay. Soon after communication from the host went completely silent. My messages were ignored and the reality hit me hard. I had been deceived by someone posing as a legitimate host using a fabricated identity and a spoofed payment address. The smart contract hash was fake and the funds were lost. I felt completely shattered. That $120,000 was my full relocation budget and essential for my new start. In desperation I confided in a friend who lives in London. He told me about a firm called Digital Tech Guard Recovery that specializes in blockchain fraud investigations. I contacted them immediately and their response was swift and professional. Their team investigated the fake smart contract and traced the wallet address. It turned out the same scammer had been involved in rental fraud schemes across Illinois Georgia and Washington. Their operation was far-reaching and deliberately targeted renters making long-term crypto payments. Amazingly just two days later Digital Tech Guard Recovery called me. They had successfully recovered the full $120,000. I was stunned with relief and gratitude as I watched the funds reappear in my wallet. Thanks to Digital Tech Guard Recovery I was finally able to move and secure a place to stay. you can reach out to them on WhatsApp: +1 (443) 859 – 2886
