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.
Portrait from behind, eyes closed, nude, traditional bust cropping, flat planes of yellow, blue, grey, and red fracture and define the form
High contrast black and white with dark architectural forms flanking the figure. Graphic and controlled. The figure stands in a surround of deep shadow and structure.

Dense ink crosshatch on pale ground with swirling figurative forms filling the background. Engraving-like in character. The line maps the figure with forensic intensity.

Warm painterly impasto with tall organic forms flanking the figure in muted golds blues and pinks. Loose and gestural. The figure stands in a gallery of painted shapes.

Loose fragmented colour patches in blue white and pink on a pale ground. Mosaic-like but free. The fragments scatter across figure and background alike.

Pale grey and white with large rounded sculptural forms in the background. Light and airy. The figure feels set against polished stone.

Cool blue geometric planes like shattered ice filling the background. The figure is refracted rather than rendered. Cold and crystalline.

Cool grey-brown with tall dark arched panels flanking the figure. The panels carry circular rivet-like forms giving the background a strong industrial character. Stark and architectural with a mechanical edge.

Stark black corners frame radiating crumpled white planes — crushed paper or foil caught in sharp light. Figure is warm against the high contrast surround. Graphic and dramatic with a strong print-like character. Bold silhouettes read with particular intensity in this style.

Deep crimson and burgundy geometric planes sweep through the background in large bold angular forms. Figure rendered in pale white-grey tones against the rich red surround. Dramatic and saturated — the red commands the image. Architectural but warm-blooded.

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.

Rich teal-green ground with large flowing organic planes in pale cream and white sweeping around the figure like unfurling tropical leaves or petals. Deep teal shadows define the forms. Figure painted in warm flesh tones against the cool botanical ground. Fluid and lush.
