Deep cobalt blue background with warm golden-yellow forms bursting outward in bold impasto. Figure painted in warm cream and flesh tones at the centre of the energy. Theatrical and baroque — stormy sky with golden light breaking through. One of the more dramatically coloured styles in the set.

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.
