Palette Analysis

David Cox sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #B89874 delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.4% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. At 74 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. Palette 12 sits within the larger chromatic argument that David Cox's complete body of work advances.
