Palette Analysis

John Varley II works in the upper reaches of the value scale, creating an atmosphere of brightness and expansiveness. John Varley II balances warm and cool with remarkable evenness, giving the composition its characteristic vibrancy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The most saturated colour, #DDCB9F, is reserved to 8.2% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The palette spans 54 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. In the context of John Varley II's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
