Palette Analysis

David Cox distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Warmth dominates - the palette of David Cox leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 10.5% is devoted to #905733, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 65 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. In the context of David Cox's full range of palettes, group 7 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
