Hester transformed the central section using the Detail Brush Set to create abstract figures and shapes inspired by Matisse’s expressionistic pattern-making. Her palette consisted of bold colours; Henrietta, Florence, Barcelona Orange, Duck Egg Blue, Scandinavian Pink, Emile, and Arles.

She painted her backgammon board using a triangle shaped cardboard template and a pencil. She filled her geometric outlines with Henrietta and Scandinavian Pink before adding line and dot details.

Finally, the snakes and ladders board was carefully marked out using a ruler. The board numbers and the snakes and ladders details were then painted over the grid, and the whole thing was finished with Lacquer to protect it.
