Palette Analysis

self-portrait keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The saturated accent, #E1D3AD, registers at 11.8% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. A value spread of 72 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
