Mid-key values give Charles Furneaux its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The highest-chroma note - #C7C0A5 - appears at just 6.5%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The value range of 39 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Charles Furneaux's complete body of work advances.
