Jose Malhoa keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Jose Malhoa deploys as the palette's primary energy. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. The highest-chroma note - #E2B743 - appears at just 3.0%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 44 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. Jose Malhoa's palette 2 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
