Palette Analysis

Jean Hey occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Mid-saturation across the board: the palette has colour character without chromatic excess. Only 4.4% is devoted to #8F5532, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 61 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Jean Hey's complete body of work advances.
