Palette Analysis

The high-key values of Edward Lear give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. Edward Lear builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. Only 10.1% is devoted to #CFB48F, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 41 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. Edward Lear's palette 2 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
