Thomas Wijck Master Palette

Palette Analysis

Thomas Wijck sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The most saturated colour, #B37F4C, is reserved to 11.5% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. A value spread of 67 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. These proportions encode Thomas Wijck's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
