Maria Blanchard sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #7D5D37 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.5%). The full value range is 56 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. In the context of Maria Blanchard's full range of palettes, group 10 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
