Eva Gonzales is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Warm and cool tones are held in careful balance - neither family dominates, creating tension and resolution simultaneously. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. #BEBEC4 claims 25.8% of the surface, functioning as the work's tonal foundation. At 5.7%, #2E1D16 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. The full value range is 56 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Eva Gonzales's complete body of work advances.
