Ivan Rutkovych occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Mid-range chroma keeps the palette grounded - colourful but not strident. #965F1F functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (12.2%). The full value range is 58 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. These proportions encode Ivan Rutkovych's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
