Cloisonnism sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The artist keeps warm and cool in parity, a balance that lends the work a perceptual shimmer. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The saturated accent, #A3502D, registers at 5.4% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. The value range of 51 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme.
