Warm brown and taupe tones with dramatic rocky stone forms flanking the figure. Painterly and classical in feel. The figure and background feel genuinely integrated.

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

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.

Pure monochrome grey with large geometric faceted planes filling the background. The figure is folded into the same angular surface rather than modelled in the round. Precise and cool with no colour anywhere in the image.

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.

Warm cream and ivory ground with faint ghosted figure forms visible in the background texture. Painterly and delicate — the spectral presences are suggested rather than stated. Figure is confident and warm against the pale haunted surround. Flattering and quietly distinctive.

Bright sky blue with large rounded cloud-like forms in white and pale blue surrounding the figure. Figure is warm and grounded against the airy cool surround. Light and open — one of the most genuinely sky-like backgrounds in this range. Luminous and uplifting.

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.

Luminous white cloud forms fill the background with dark charcoal tendril or vine-like marks threading through them. Cool blue-grey at the base. Figure painted in warm flesh tones against the pale open surround. Looser and more organic than Pale Damask — botanical rather than decorative.

Pale blue and cream angular planes fill the background in large airy blocks — bright and open rather than heavy. Figure painted in warm flesh tones against the luminous cool ground. Light-filled and confident.

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.

Dense swirling gestural marks in cool grey-white and deep burgundy-red. Dark turbulent forms flank a pale central figure. Heavy impasto quality throughout. Brooding and theatrical.
