Palette Analysis

Jose Maria Velasco works in the upper reaches of the value scale, creating an atmosphere of brightness and expansiveness. Warmth dominates - the palette of Jose Maria Velasco leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #693F43 at 6.5% is both the most chromatic and one of the largest colours in the palette - chroma as mass rather than as highlight. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 68 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 4 of Jose Maria Velasco's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
