Palette Analysis

Edward E. Simmons keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Edward E. Simmons balances warm and cool with remarkable evenness, giving the composition its characteristic vibrancy. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The most saturated colour, #BEA065, is reserved to 7.0% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. A value spread of 70 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. In the context of Edward E. Simmons's full range of palettes, group 6 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
