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.

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

Cool grey with large sculptural rock forms in the background. Painterly and soft. The figure sits comfortably in front of the surface.

Warm ochre and flesh tones on the figure against a fractured white ground with bold blue and yellow colour blocks. The grid is loose and painterly rather than hard-edged. Energetic and immediate with strong graphic presence.

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.

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.

Warm flesh tones throughout with ghostly repeated figure forms filling the background in the same skin palette. The repeated forms generate odd fleshy appendages around the central figure. Distinctive and slightly unsettling.

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.

Cool silver and blue with dramatic angular mountain-like forms filling the background — jagged peaks or shattered rock faces in dark gestural marks. Figure is warm and painterly against the powerful cool surround. Alpine and commanding. One of the more dramatically structured backgrounds in this range.

Cool blue-grey and near-black with a blazing white centre that backlights the figure dramatically. Large dark organic forms sweep in from both sides like heavy wings or drawn curtains. Figure sits at the threshold of light and shadow in deep cool tones with only traces of warm flesh breaking through.

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.
