Palette Analysis

The value structure of Daniel Seghers is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The dominant colour, #22211B, takes 49.3% of the total area, establishing the overall mood before any other hue is introduced. #C2A662 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (1.7%). The full value range is 61 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. This is palette 2 of Daniel Seghers's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
