Palette Analysis

cloudscape keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warm hues command this palette; it favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. A single dominant - #1D181E at 28.4% - sets the character of the whole composition. The saturated accent, #B07953, registers at 3.6% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. A value spread of 58 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
