VILLA BETULA

the dark hues of maren ingeborg gråblomst

MORE THAN HALFWAY THERE

So much going on in my stories at Instagram today! If you fancy some videos from my work you better get over there and have a look (they will disappear during the day tomorrow). Remember how this painting used to look like? Well, today its personality changed forever and ever! I love this kind of work, it’s my medication, and I don’t care about the housekeeping or the “should be” painted ceiling in the hallway (cf. yesterday’s post about daily routines, cough 😉 ) Just so you know it’s not done, I will work more on the face, but the hours flew and I didn’t get any further today.

Several months ago I told my husband I would make a painting of this big soundproofing we had in the recording studio that would just melt into the rest of the environment. Not a painting screaming for attention since it was so bold and nice in there already, and this one is huge, you know, 140 x 240 cm. Do you think I kept my word? Ha ha, of course not! My husband don’t think I made the “melting in” part that well, but he adores it, and I makes my heart warm. Melting in or not – it’s a cool piece to rule a recording studio, don’t you think?! Everyone entering the room will feel his surveillance gaze for sure.

So now I just have to get this piece done and carry it out to the studio, and it will be very exciting to see it in a much bigger space! And at that time you have no choice but to see how it turned out! And maybe I will sell it as a print on canvas in my shop too… who knows… Anyone who would dare to have it full size in their home?

ABOUT ME

I do and share things by heart. I create personal texts, am a musician, sell original art and prints, make a special home and capture the magic with my camera – everything rather dark hued. Villa Betula is not just skimming the tops.

And by the way - my name is Maren Ingeborg Gråblomst and I’m Norwegian. Gråblomst means grey flower.
