Charles William Mitchell sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Charles William Mitchell deploys as the palette's primary energy. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. At 9.3%, #5C2C29 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. The full value range is 65 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Charles William Mitchell's complete body of work advances.
