John Souch Palette 1

Palette Analysis

John Souch distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. John Souch keeps warm and cool in parity, a balance that lends the work a perceptual shimmer. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. A single dominant - #15100A at 26.7% - sets the character of the whole composition. The saturated accent, #E7B078, registers at 4.9% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 72 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that John Souch's complete body of work advances.
