Pointillism distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Built on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #834F3F functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.4%). At 53 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
