John Wilson Carmichael sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. Only 9.3% is devoted to #625235, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 48 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. John Wilson Carmichael's palette 8 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
