Palette Analysis
The value structure of Dorrit Black is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #100E0E claims 33.3% of the surface, functioning as the work's tonal foundation. The highest-chroma note - #BF903E - appears at just 5.1%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 73 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 2 of Dorrit Black's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
