Synchromism sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. At 10.1%, #9F6631 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. The value range spans 62 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy.
