Palette Analysis
The high-key values of Paul Ranson give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. Paul Ranson orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. The saturated accent, #F4DCC3, registers at 4.7% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. 59 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is palette 1 of Paul Ranson's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
