flower painting is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Warmth dominates - the palette leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. At 3.8%, #BB8B44 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 62 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth.
