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!

It all started when I stumbled upon a Telegram group that promised incredible returns on investments. The admin claimed that if I sent 0.5 Bitcoin (BTC), I would receive double my investment within just 24 hours. As a college student eager to make some extra money, the prospect of quick profits was too enticing to ignore. I watched as others in the group shared their success stories, boasting about how they had turned small investments into substantial gains. Their excitement fueled my own hopes, and I felt a rush of adrenaline at the thought of joining their ranks.I decided to take the plunge. I transferred my 0.5 BTC, convinced that I was making a smart financial decision. The initial thrill of the investment quickly turned into anxiety as I waited for the promised returns. Hours passed, and I kept checking the group for updates, but the excitement I had felt began to wane. Instead of the anticipated messages celebrating our profits, the group fell silent.Then, the unthinkable happened. The admin deleted all messages, and the group vanished into thin air. Panic set in as I realized that I had been scammed. I wasn’t alone; over 200 others had also fallen victim to this scheme, collectively losing a staggering 20 BTC. The weight of my decision crashed down on me, and I felt a mix of anger, shame, and helplessness. I had trusted the promises made by the admin, and now I was left with nothing but regret.In the days that followed, I grappled with the reality of my loss. I felt like a fool for believing in the quick returns that had been dangled in front of me. However, a glimmer of hope emerged when I learned about PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY, a firm specializing in cryptocurrency recovery. They had identified the scammers and were working diligently to recover the stolen funds. I followed their progress with a sense of cautious optimism, hoping that they could bring justice to those of us who had been wronged.To my relief, PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY successfully traced the stolen Bitcoins and managed to recover all the funds. This outcome was a bittersweet victory for me. While I was grateful to have my investment returned, the experience served as a harsh lesson about the dangers of the cryptocurrency world. I realized that the promise of quick returns often comes with significant risks, and I vowed to be more cautious in the future.This experience has left me more aware of the importance of conducting thorough research and verifying the legitimacy of any investment opportunity.
SUPPORT GROUP FOR CRYPTO FRAUD VICTIMS – DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY
Cryptocurrency has revolutionized finance, drawing both eager investors and cunning scammers. I encountered one such scam through a fraudulent website, Coexus Pro, which epitomized the darker side of this digital landscape. The site promised lucrative daily returns through an “arbitrage trading crypto bot” and cleverly mimicked the branding of a trusted cryptocurrency exchange, fostering a false sense of security. Enticed by the prospect of a consistent 1% daily return, I invested a substantial amount, hoping to capitalize on this seemingly golden opportunity. Initially, the platform performed as promised: returns appeared in my account, and I successfully withdrew funds without issues. This early success bolstered my confidence, convincing me I had made a savvy investment. However, my optimism was short-lived. When I attempted another withdrawal, I was informed that my account balance had fallen below a supposed “liquidity requirement,” necessitating an additional deposit. Trusting their explanation, I complied, believing it was a minor setback. Yet, when I tried to withdraw again, I was met with a new excuse: “blockchain congestion,” which they claimed would delay my funds for 24 days. As days stretched into weeks, my anxiety grew. After 50 days, I contacted their support team, only to face another demand—a 15% fee for “technical support” from a fictitious “Federal Reserve blockchain regulator.” The realization hit me: I had been ensnared by a sophisticated scam. The website soon vanished, replaced by a nearly identical one, continuing the deception. Desperate for answers, I turned to social media and found a review from another victim who had endured a similar ordeal. They praised Digital Tech Guard Recovery for recovering their funds. Inspired, I contacted Digital Tech Guard Recovery, whose cybersecurity expertise offered hope. While awaiting their response, I vowed to stay vigilant to avoid future scams in the volatile crypto world. Ultimately, their efforts paid off, and I recovered my funds, underscoring the value of diligence and seeking professional help in the face of fraud.
