Palette Analysis
Values in Contemporary Realism rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. The palette orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. Only 8.5% is devoted to #937549, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 46 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate.
