Figurative Palette 12

Palette Analysis

figurative occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm and cool are kept in productive tension, creating the kind of chromatic harmony that sustains the eye. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The most saturated colour, #AB522F, is reserved to 3.5% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. A value spread of 62 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
