Palette Analysis

Kim Hong-do occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Temperature reads distinctly warm: the reds and earth tones from Kim Hong-do carry the compositional weight. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. The chromatic peak belongs to #846748, and at 6.9% it dominates, not decorates. 30 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. In the context of Kim Hong-do's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
