Palette Analysis

Jan van der Meer II sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Jan van der Meer II deploys as the palette's primary energy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 5.7% is devoted to #75603D, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 60 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Jan van der Meer II's palette 1 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
