Palette Analysis

Light floods Daniel Sherrin; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. #7E5838 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.4%). 63 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Daniel Sherrin's complete body of work advances.
