Palette Analysis

Values in Surrealism rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. 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. #ECE3D6 is not a small accent - at 5.4% it qualifies as a major presence and gives the palette its chromatic identity. The full value range is 65 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
