Mario Eloy keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. #C1A877 delivers the chromatic peak at only 8.8% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. A value spread of 59 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Mario Eloy's complete body of work advances.
