Palette Analysis

Mid-key values give Thomas Dewing its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warm hues command this palette; Thomas Dewing favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Mid-saturation across the board: the palette has colour character without chromatic excess. Only 8.7% is devoted to #D4A25D, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 45 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. Palette 6 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Thomas Dewing's complete body of work advances.
