Values in Arthur David McCormick rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The highest-chroma note - #694631 - appears at just 7.8%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 67 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Arthur David McCormick's palette 1 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
