Palette Analysis
Values in Alonzo Chappel rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Warm hues command this palette; Alonzo Chappel favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #6A4021 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (12.5%). The value range spans 61 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. These proportions encode Alonzo Chappel's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
