50 Shades Of Grey Book Series

[Kathrine Selvage]

Irecently finished a series of four oil paintings that I created together to explore many different ways to paint gray. The paintings are two views of two sculptures at the Portland Museum of Art, and each one is painted with only two colors, plus white.

This series is special to me partly because this was a lot of fun to paint, but also because it was really challenging for me, and because of the special memories attached to these sculptures, which I first saw ten years ago. This series accomplishes several artistic goals that have been floating around in my mind for years.

First and foremost, my goal was to explore shades of gray with oil paint. I spent a delightful summer afternoon going back to my roots, painting a few color charts using the various tubes of reds, oranges, greens and blues in my studio. After a very scientific decision-making process (staring at them for a long time), I chose four combinations that I think make especially interesting shades of gray:

Each painting uses one only one of these combinations, and white, which means that two of the paintings use the same blue, two use the same red, and so on. In retrospect, it might not have been the best idea for one of the paintings to use only primary colors (red and blue), but as a lover of the color purple, I think it still works in this exploration of rich grays.

Two of the paintings are of one sculpture, and two are of another. Two of the paintings are a full-length view of that sculpture, and two are a bit more zoomed-in. Two of these paintings came together easily and were finished a while ago. Two of these paintings were left unfinished for months while I puzzled over how to finish them. I have been endlessly fascinated by the endless combinations of pairs among the set of four.

Another one of my goals was to finally do something with a few favorite photos that I took ten years ago. The Portland Museum of Art has a gorgeous gallery that is filled with sunlight and sculptures by Franklin D. Simmons. Each marble figure is magnificently carved, and they each look especially beautiful to me in the light of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

I'm a writer with a deep love for all things romantic... Currently I'm working on the popular Fifty Shades Meander as posted on FanFiction (where I write as Mobabe) and my blog which is based on E L James' Fifty Shades of Grey Trilogy.Fifty Shades Meander cuts into Fifty Shades Freed where Ana finds out that she's pregnant. Don't worry, strictly happy endings here with all your favourite characters of the book... I also write fan fiction on Sylvia Day's Crossfire series, and am working on an original story.I don't own anything of the original books and I don't stand to make any profit from using the characters from Fifty Shades of Grey or Crossfire, however the stories on here are my own creations as well as any new characters therein, and is therefore subject to copyright. Nothing on this site is to be copied without the express permission of the author.

Monique frequently refers to me as her Grammar Fairy. In truth, I feel more like the Punctuation Police, but I'll answer to either title. I am one of those truly annoying people for whom writing errors jump off the page as if they'd been set down in pink neon.

Monique is endeavoring to make me less irritating by asking me to harness this blessing/curse and use it for good, not evil, as the editor of Meander. To say that I am honored by her request is an understatement.

I almost passed up the opportunity to read Meander when I saw that it began with the premise of Ana leaving Christian, but something drew me back to the story, and I was hooked. Like her other readers, I love the gift that Monique has for conveying the emotion behind the action. Editing the chapters is time-consuming, and involves a lot of back-and-forth with Monique. Her kindness and sense of humor make it a pleasure to work with her.

The results of our collaboration might not be immediately obvious, and it's going to take us a while to work through the whole story, but we'll get there. I view it as my job to polish the story and make it as close to technically perfect as I can get it, while changing Monique's wonderful words as little as possible - Susan
