Karel Škréta Palette 2
Muted Vellum
Muted Deliberately desaturated - chroma pulled toward gray, the restraint of tonal painting.

Palette Analysis
Karel kréta sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #CAAE97 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.6%). The value range spans 56 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. Karel kréta's palette 2 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
