Dark grey with cave-like grotto forms in the background. Hints of pink and mauve bleed through the stone texture. Cooler and moodier than Cool Slate.

Soft impressionist brushwork in pale pinks greens and blues with floral forms in the background. Delicate and luminous. The figure feels alive with light and colour.

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.

Pale grey and white with large rounded sculptural forms in the background. Light and airy. The figure feels set against polished stone.

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.

Pale ground with a dense blue-grey pattern of text-like or script-like marks filling the background. The figure is rendered in warm flesh tones over the inscribed surface. Distinctive and layered with an archaeological quality.

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.

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 azure ground with large draped forms described in clean dark contour line. Figure rendered in the same decisive line with warm flesh tones. One of the more reliably flattering styles available. The clean line finds and elevates the essential form in almost any source.
