Palette Analysis

Values in John Henderson rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The highest-chroma note - #A54A3F - appears at just 2.5%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 54 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. This is the light John Henderson preferred, made measurable.
