Jan Provoost keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warmth dominates - the palette of Jan Provoost 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. The most saturated colour, #FAF5EA, is reserved to 7.7% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 72 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Jan Provoost arrived at this balance through long practice; the palette carries the weight of that experience.
