For Marker Artists

moderate orange tones with a split-complementary indigo accent — a warm palette. The 68-point value spread (12% to 80% lightness) supports strong shadow-to-highlight transitions — useful for dramatic, theatrical, or high-contrast work. High saturation makes this palette assertive and graphic — use it where color should do the leading.
