Constantin Artachino keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. 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. #B04C3A functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.3%). 53 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. Taken together, these qualities constitute Constantin Artachino's chromatic voice - distinctive enough to be read across an entire body of work.
