Bold colour blocks in yellow blue grey and red fill the entire image. The figure reads through the grid rather than in front of it. Energetic and immediate.

Pale cool ground with ghostly figurative forms emerging from the background. Soft and ethereal. The figure shares the space with phantom presences.

Warm pinks and rose with large painterly forms flanking the figure. Rich and sensuous. The figure feels present and inhabited.

Warm ochre and flesh tones on the figure against a fractured white ground with bold blue and yellow colour blocks. The grid is loose and painterly rather than hard-edged. Energetic and immediate with strong graphic presence.

Warm flesh and pale blue with tiled repeated copies of the figure filling the background in an ordered grid. The central figure stands before a wall of its own reflections. Distinctive and slightly disorienting with a pop multiplicity.

Pale ivory and cream ground with loose scrolling organic forms in terracotta and rust. Background generates rounded decorative shapes — ornamental rather than architectural. Figure is warm and confident against the near-white surround. Distinctive and quietly decorative.

Bright sky blue with large rounded cloud-like forms in white and pale blue surrounding the figure. Figure is warm and grounded against the airy cool surround. Light and open — one of the most genuinely sky-like backgrounds in this range. Luminous and uplifting.

Pale yellow cream and soft mauve-blue build both figure and background as if a pointillist painting has been gently diffused — dots present but bleeding into each other. Background generates large luminous cloud-like forms in the same soft technique. High-key and summery — luminous rather than crisp.

Deep cobalt blue organic forms and warm cream masses fill the background in bold painterly strokes. Figure rendered in warm flesh tones against the strong blue and cream surround. The blue forms have genuine weight and presence — geological and imposing. Blue border frames the composition.

Luminous white cloud forms fill the background with dark charcoal tendril or vine-like marks threading through them. Cool blue-grey at the base. Figure painted in warm flesh tones against the pale open surround. Looser and more organic than Pale Damask — botanical rather than decorative.

Pale blue and cream angular planes fill the background in large airy blocks — bright and open rather than heavy. Figure painted in warm flesh tones against the luminous cool ground. Light-filled and confident.

Flat irregular stone forms in cool grey-white with dark crack lines fill the background like a rendered stone wall. Figure painted in warm flesh tones with precise dark outline standing clearly in front of the flat pale ground. Clean graphic and architectural.
