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.

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.

Cool grey crosshatch and gestural marks fill the background with organic forms emerging from the surface. The figure is sketched rather than rendered with loose confident line. Immediate and alive with a life-drawing energy.

High-key warm white with large fractured plaster forms filling the background. Cool shadows give the pale surface depth and sculptural weight. Light and substantial with a bleached stone quality.

Dark blue-grey ground with large pale peach and cream cloud-like forms rising behind the figure. The figure is warmly rendered in flesh tones against the cool dark surround. Painterly and dramatic with a strong light-dark contrast.

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.

Dark near-black ground with large pale rounded forms glowing with cool violet-grey light and teal edge highlights. Figure stands warm against the luminous floating masses. The orbs read as buoyant and light-catching rather than geological — strange and quietly spectacular.

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.

Cool blue-grey and warm ochre-gold impasto with large diagonal brushstrokes creating a herringbone pattern across the entire surface. Figure and background unified in the same energetic mark-making. Flattering and enveloping — this style wraps its subject in warmth and movement.

Entire surface broken into dense confident brushstrokes in cool blue-grey and white — figure and ground unified in the same energetic mark-making. The figure is present but woven into the surface rather than sitting on it. Cool silvery and kinetic.

Saturated yellow ground with vertical streaks and drips of red orange and blue running through the composition like paint in motion. Figure painted in warm flesh and orange-red tones fully absorbed into the blazing ground. Hot gestural and overwhelming.
