Palette Analysis

Jacob Ochtervelt keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warmth dominates - the palette of Jacob Ochtervelt leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #487CA3 delivers the chromatic peak at only 4.2% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The full value range is 60 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Jacob Ochtervelt's palette 2 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
