Fauvism Palette 15
Dimmed Flint
Dimmed Moderate shadow - values pulled toward mid-dark, as if a light source has been reduced.
Flint Cool dark gray with a blue edge - the color of struck flint, hard and mineral.
Palette Analysis
Fauvism keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. At 8.5%, #8A3538 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. Spanning 51 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
