Palette Analysis

Values in self-portrait rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Warmth dominates - the palette leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #D6C17C delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.2% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. At 56 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
