Values in Mary Beale rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The highest-chroma note - #ECD6B5 - appears at just 7.7%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 68 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette is recognisably Mary Beale's own: particular in its temperature, chroma, and the economy of its brightest note.
