Dissolves the source into pointillist scatter on a pale ground. Warm earth tones of cream rust and burgundy. The figure is readable but barely — features survive as suggestion rather than form.

Warm sandy stone with rounded cobble-like forms filling the background. Soft and tactile. The figure feels set into the surface rather than placed in front of it.

Cool grey with large rounded boulder forms filling the background. The figure stands in front rather than integrating with the surface.

Cool blue and white vertical streaks dissolve the background into a waterfall or melt effect. Warm figure stands confidently against the cool dissolution. Brushwork is loose and expressive rather than geometric. Strong temperature contrast between figure and ground.

Cool blue and taupe with angular stone-like geometric forms and a distinctive arched border framing the composition. Background generates fractured architectural planes within the arch.

Dark charcoal and deep purple flank large pale glowing rock or ice forms behind the figure. Scattered leaf shapes in the upper corners add a decorative note. Figure is warm against the luminous pale centre. Dramatic contrast between glowing stone and dark surround. Moody and painterly.

Pale azure ground with large draped forms described in clean dark contour line. Figure rendered in the same decisive line with warm flesh tones. One of the more reliably flattering styles available. The clean line finds and elevates the essential form in almost any source.

Figure rendered in flat orange-red against a pale grey-cream background of fine-line panelled detail suggesting newsprint or comic strip. Large dark orange-red circular forms sweep in from the sides. Graphic and immediate with a pop art edge.

Large irregular fragments in warm yellow golden ochre cobalt blue and teal scattered across a pale near-white ground. Figure built from the same vivid fragments with generous white space throughout. Bright celebratory and light-filled.
