Mestre Ataíde keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Colours are neither washed out nor blazing; they occupy the productive middle ground of the chroma scale. The highest-chroma note - #B24428 - appears at just 5.2%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 60 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Mestre Ataíde's complete body of work advances.
