Anton Ivanov-Goluboy sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Warm and cool tones are held in careful balance - neither family dominates, creating tension and resolution simultaneously. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The highest-chroma note - #97C7FC - appears at just 2.5%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 58 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Anton Ivanov-Goluboy arrived at this balance through long practice; the palette carries the weight of that experience.
