Palette Analysis
Symbolism 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. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #B5A179 delivers the chromatic peak at only 6.9% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. At 44 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
