Sebastian Pether Palette 2

Palette Analysis

Sebastian Pether sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #4A3816 delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.0% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. 50 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. In the context of Sebastian Pether's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
