Palette Analysis
The value structure of William Dobson is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Warm hues command this palette; William Dobson favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #B32611 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (1.8%). A value spread of 61 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. William Dobson arrived at this balance through long practice; the palette carries the weight of that experience.
