David Allan Palette 2
Muted Caramel
Muted Deliberately desaturated - chroma pulled toward gray, the restraint of tonal painting.
Caramel Warm mid-brown - the color of cooked sugar, smooth and amber-toned.
Palette Analysis
David Allan occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm hues command this palette; David Allan 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. Only 5.2% is devoted to #EDE1CD, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 63 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 2 of David Allan's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
