Palette Analysis

Claude Arnulphy sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The most saturated colour, #695A4C, is reserved to 10.2% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. Spanning 30 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. In the context of Claude Arnulphy's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
