Palette Analysis

Frank O'Meara occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The saturated accent, #C29870, registers at 5.8% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. A value spread of 65 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Frank O'Meara's palette 2 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
