Mid-key values give Abstract Expressionism its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. #762546 claims 25.2% of the surface, functioning as the work's tonal foundation. The saturated accent, #B64823, registers at 10.7% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. The value range spans 74 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy.
