Oleksa Novakivskyi 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. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. #C8B18A delivers the chromatic peak at only 7.0% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. A value spread of 56 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Oleksa Novakivskyi's complete body of work advances.
