John Leech is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The most saturated colour, #66412C, is reserved to 3.5% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 71 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. John Leech's palette 2 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
