Palette Analysis
Values in William Simpson tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that William Simpson deploys as the palette's primary energy. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. Only 6.1% is devoted to #F6F4F1, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 75 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. In the context of William Simpson's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
