Palette Analysis

Values in David Morier rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. Only 5.5% is devoted to #4C2E0A, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The palette spans 53 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. This is palette 4 of David Morier's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
