Palette Analysis

Edward Moran sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Temperature reads distinctly warm: the reds and earth tones from Edward Moran carry the compositional weight. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. The most saturated colour, #9A5A33, is reserved to 5.7% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 63 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. In the context of Edward Moran's full range of palettes, group 5 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
