Palette Analysis
Henri-Paul Motte sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. A distinctly cool atmosphere runs through this palette: sky, water, and mist given colour form. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #D7BD91 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.1%). At 75 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. In the context of Henri-Paul Motte's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
