sketch and study keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. Mid-range chroma keeps the palette grounded - colourful but not strident. Rather than a studied accent, #E7BE7F takes 7.3% - a bold allocation that saturates the composition's atmosphere. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 65 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The combination of mid-to-high key, balanced temperature, and elevated chroma is characteristic of Impressionist observation: light broken into its component hues.
