Cool grey with swirling marks and ghostly repeated faces emerging from the background. Unsettling and distinctive. The figure stands in a crowd of shadows.

Deep blue with sweeping fluid forms that merge completely with the figure. The hair explodes into waves that fill the entire image. Figure and style become one thing.

Bold red and black sweeping curves frame the figure against a pale blue-white centre. The background generates dramatic looping forms that enclose the composition like a frame. Sensuous and immediate with high graphic energy.

Sandy ochre and warm stone tones with the background generating a clear arch and flanking walls that frame the figure in a niche. Painterly and naturalistic with strong architectural presence. The figure feels placed rather than imposed.

Near-black ground with slashing crimson and deep red forms flanking the figure. Figure is pale and exposed against the dark threatening surround. Darker and more menacing than Crimson Stage — the black dominates with red as accent. Dramatic and confrontational.

Cool silver and blue with dramatic angular mountain-like forms filling the background — jagged peaks or shattered rock faces in dark gestural marks.
