Palette Analysis

Values in John Gifford rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that John Gifford deploys as the palette's primary energy. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The highest-chroma note - #9F703C - appears at just 7.2%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 73 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that John Gifford's complete body of work advances.
