Palette Analysis

Values in Jacob Ochtervelt rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Jacob Ochtervelt deploys as the palette's primary energy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 1.3% is devoted to #487CA3, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 57 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is the light Jacob Ochtervelt preferred, made measurable.
