VILLA BETULA

the dark hues of maren ingeborg gråblomst

I WILL SHARE THE HARDEST PART IN THE TIME TO COME, BUT FOR NOW: VILLA BETULA IS FOR SALE

10/02/2018

This house – my heart and soul. My life, my work. My 24/7. Paintings have been made, music and films been recorded, big laughs and big tears. Big black holes and bright clear lights. Most of all – lots of love – it’s still in the walls, and it’s still within us. For each other and for ourselves. But we need to take more care of ourselves. Our health, mainly mine, is what stopped us in the end. The point where I can’t stretch myself any longer, and neither can he. And the part of it that makes this very special and “mysterious” is the love we still share, and yet we will not be a married couple any longer. I don’t deal with deep love so well, it feels like my curse in life. I have to step back and be on my own to build stability and control around my mental health. I don’t expect anyone to understand. It’s a lonely place to be.

My emotions and health I will write more about later, every time I have something in my heart that I feel can help others. But I have to help myself first, in order to help others, so maybe I will get a little quiet every now and then.

But then there’s all the practical things we have to sort out, and it feels like a full time job right now. With the big sorrow and loss on top of that. I wanted to keep Villa Betula because this is my base for all things I do, and all new plans for my concept were to take room in here. But the bank was thinking… For days… And it almost drove me crazy, but in the end it was a no. I did what I possibly could, but I guess there’s a meaning to it. It’s hard to believe this will take me to a better place, but I find strength in believing that these days.

It’s time to hand this dark hues and endless possibilities with this property over to someone else, and I was wondering if that might be you? I will give my readers and followers the opportunity to buy Villa Betula before we put it out in the “official” real estate market. 

Don’t be afraid to send me an e-mail with your inquiry at contact@villabetula.com. Now that I know there’s no way to keep it, it will be a relief the day someone else decide to make it theirs <3

    I’ll be missing the beautiful imagery of this place. But I’m sure wherever you go you’ll make your next place just as beautiful and you’ll create more art and more gorgeous photography. Good luck with the new phase in your life!.

      Thanks a lot Olga! Hope you’ll keep coming to my blog even though it might get a little different in a new place… But I will also share old photos from “the real” Villa Betula, and who knows – maybe the new place can get even better?!

    Your home is absolutely lovely! And the way you write about it makes me feel like your parting from an actual person hah. I hope you find another beautiful place to call home which could come as close to your heart as Villa Betula.

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.
