Values in Theodor Kleehaas rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #828749 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (2.1%). The value range of 54 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. Theodor Kleehaas's palette 1 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
