Palette Analysis
Neo-Figurative Art keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 6.8% is devoted to #D7BD8D, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 63 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
