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!

  • LET DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY HELP YOU RECLAIM YOUR STOLEN CRYPTOCURRENY

    Cryptocurrency has revolutionized the way we think about money and investments, but it also comes with its own set of challenges and risks. Recovering lost cryptocurrency can often seem like an impossible task, but the outcome largely depends on how the loss occurred and, more importantly, who you turn to for help. I learned this lesson the hard way after falling victim to a crypto investment scam that cost me $95,440 USDC. Thankfully, I discovered Digital Tech Guard Recovery, a company that operates globally and transformed what felt like a hopeless situation into a successful recovery. My ordeal began two months ago when a long-time friend introduced me to a new crypto investment platform. He spoke highly of it, claiming he had already seen impressive returns. The offer seemed too good to be true: invest a certain amount, and within days, you’d see substantial profits. The platform even showcased fake testimonials and what appeared to be real-time profit updates. Trusting my friend’s judgment, I decided to invest some of my savings, believing this was a smart opportunity to grow my funds. Everything looked promising. My account displayed profits, which encouraged me to invest even more. However, when I tried to withdraw my earnings, I faced a major obstacle. For three frustrating days, I was told I needed to deposit additional funds to “unlock” my withdrawal. That’s when I realized I had been scammed. Feeling lost and desperate, I began searching for ways to recover my lost cryptocurrency and came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery. At first, I was doubtful how could anyone trace crypto that seemed to be gone for good? However, their positive reviews caught my attention, so I decided to reach out. Digital Tech Guard Recovery was responsive, and transparent about what could be done. They didn’t make unrealistic promises but assured me they had successfully handled cases like mine before. I chose to move forward, and to my immense relief, they managed to recover my entire $95,440 USDC in a surprisingly short time. I was truly amazed. Their service was not only effective but also conducted with confidentiality and integrity. They kept me informed throughout the process and treated my case with the urgency it required. If you’ve lost funds due to a scam or fraudulent platform, don’t lose hope. Digital Tech Guard Recovery, operating globally, proved to me that recovery is possible when you have the right experts on your side.

  • Hello to everyone around the globe. I’m Jefferey Vargas from Malta. My girlfriend ended our relationship for seemingly no reason and I came to understand that my financial struggles may have contributed to this, as a healthy relationship is difficult without money and aside from God, having more money is often seen as vital. For spellcasting, Lord Meduza is the right person to turn to. My girlfriend left me for another man due to my financial situation, but after connecting with Lord Meduza, he created a spell that not only brought my girlfriend back but also made me a lottery winner of €116 million by providing me with the 6 lucky numbers to play the lottery. Everything feels almost unreal but I assure you this is genuine and it’s occurring. My life is incredibly beautiful and I owe my deepest appreciation to Lord Meduza as his efforts are the epitome of excellence.. I strongly encourage everyone here to reach him for help via email: lordmeduzatemple@hotmail.com or you WhatsApp this number +1 807 907 2687.
