Tachisme occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues deployed as the palette's primary energy. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 9.0% is devoted to #4C2923, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 55 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls.
