Palette Analysis
Maria Blanchard sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #15111B functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.0%). 75 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. In the context of Maria Blanchard's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
