Cool blue and lavender with rounded stone forms in the background. Softer and more organic than it first appears. The palette runs from ice blue to soft purple.

Pale cool ground with ghostly figurative forms emerging from the background. Soft and ethereal. The figure shares the space with phantom presences.

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 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.
Crouching nude with puka shells, soft tactile stonework with embedded, sculpted depth
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.
Crouching nude with puka shells, monochrome cubist facets, figure and ground merged in cool grey
Warm flesh and pale blue with tiled repeated copies of the figure filling the background in an ordered grid. The central figure stands before a wall of its own reflections. Distinctive and slightly disorienting with a pop multiplicity.
Crouching nude with puka shells, bold figure repeated in an ordered grid of warm and cool tones, slightly surreal
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.

Dark blue border frames a cool interior of rounded boulder forms in pale blue and stone. Figure is warm and painterly against the cool surround. The vignette framing gives a distinctive painting-within-a-painting quality. Cool and composed with real painterly substance.

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.

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.

Pale watercolour-like ground with soft grey-blue shadow marks and rose-pink accents catching at knees hands and floor. Dark forms loom in the upper corners. The surface has a first-pull silkscreen quality — colour present but not yet fully arrived. Delicate and slightly unresolved.
Crouching nude with puka shells, silkscreen-like, colour barely arrived, delicate and unresolved
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.
