Palette Analysis

Light floods Jean Hey; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #C5A18A functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.5%). At 65 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Jean Hey's palette 1 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
