Palette Analysis
Ralph Hedley distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Ralph Hedley orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 4.7% is devoted to #834A2E, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 59 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 4 of Ralph Hedley's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
