Palette Analysis
Maarten de Vos occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warmth dominates - the palette of Maarten de Vos 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. #C8855A functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.5%). The full value range is 78 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Maarten de Vos's complete body of work advances.
