Strong graphite on dark ground with bold sweeping strokes filling the background. High contrast and dramatic. The figure stands in a storm of marks!

High contrast black and white with dark architectural forms flanking the figure. Graphic and controlled. The figure stands in a surround of deep shadow and structure.

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.

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.

Deep navy blue with large pale boulder forms flanking the figure. Warm flesh tones pop sharply against the cool dark surround. Painterly and dramatic with a strong warm-cool contrast.

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.

Dusty mauve-grey stone texture absorbs the figure into the surface. Body reads as shallow relief rather than figure against background. Cool and permanent — the source becomes architecture.

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 blue and mauve with large rounded petal-like forms filling the background — abstract roses with a crystalline flash. Figure is warm and painterly against the cool floral surround. Soft and romantic but with a sparkling edge. Distinctive and immediately appealing.

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.

Warm coral and peach collage fragments arranged in large diamond shapes suggest a torn-up pastel townscape — sun-bleached buildings seen from above or in elevation. Figure stands in front of the fragmented architecture against cool blue gaps. Tactile and sun-warmed.

Cool blue and pale grey with large flowing folded forms filling the background — billowing fabric or soft drapery rendered in fluid organic shapes. Figure painted in warm flesh tones with blue-grey overlay. Lighter and more structured than Ashen Chaos — cool and considered.
