Deep burnt orange and amber flanking forms cradle a cool white figure. The background generates warm flame-like shapes that contrast sharply with the pale painterly rendering of the figure. Vivid and energetic with strong colour drama.

Warm pink and mauve with large rounded boulder forms filling the background. The figure is naturalistically rendered and pops with sharp presence against the soft stone surround. Painterly and warm with a grotto-like depth to the background.

Cool blue lavender and silver with a silky vertical flow in the background — draped fabric or cascading water in cool light. Figure is warm against the pearlescent surround. Iridescent and luminous throughout. One of the more delicate and distinctive backgrounds in this range.

Cool blue-grey stone walls with large pale rock forms catching light behind the figure. Floor reads as dark slate. The figure stands in a rocky alcove or cave interior — cool and substantial. One of the more convincingly geological grottos in the set.

Large rounded organic forms in cream pale gold and soft teal-grey pack the background like a mass of open oyster shells. Figure painted in warm flesh tones with the same impasto weight as the surrounding forms. Lush and sculptural — the figure is held rather than swamped.

Large angular faceted planes in pale blue-grey white and cream cover the entire surface like crumpled paper or crushed ice. Figure painted in warm flesh tones sits gently against the cool crystalline ground. Precise delicate and icy.
