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 blue-purple ground with fragmented cream and gold shapes behind a confident figure. Background generates a broken tile or stained glass quality. Bold and slightly psychedelic in register. Figure holds coherence against the fractured surround.

Pale cream and warm rose with a distinctive stippled newsprint-like texture throughout. Figure has the quality of a silk screen that didn't fully take — present but not quite arrived. Background generates soft fragmented forms in the same light palette. Light and distinctive — unlike most painterly styles in this range.

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

Deep navy terracotta-red and pale blue-grey rectangular blocks arranged in a stark architectural composition. Figure painted naturalistically in warm flesh tones against the hard-edged colour field. Modernist and uncompromising — colour as architecture.

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.

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.

Pale blue-white ground with large fluid dark forms sweeping in from the sides like heavy shadow or dark marble veining. Figure painted in warm flesh tones with cool blue accents standing clearly in the pale centre. Dramatic and fluid with a marbled quality.
