For Marker Artists

restrained blue tones with an analogous purple accent — a cool palette. The 64-point value spread (4% to 68% lightness) supports strong shadow-to-highlight transitions — useful for dramatic, theatrical, or high-contrast work. Restrained saturation keeps the palette cohesive — individual colors don't fight for attention.
