Vellum Smooth pale tan - the color of prepared calf-skin vellum, warmer than parchment.
Palette Analysis
The value structure of James Hamilton is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #F2E3D5 delivers the chromatic peak at only 11.0% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The value range spans 72 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. In the context of James Hamilton's full range of palettes, group 3 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
