Palette Analysis
David Morier sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The highest-chroma note - #B06F3A - appears at just 1.4%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 40 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that David Morier's complete body of work advances.
