  2. Complementary colors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementary_colors

    Color printing uses the CMYK color model, making colors by overprinting cyan, magenta, yellow, and black ink. In printing the most common complementary colors are magenta–green, yellow–blue, and cyan–red. In terms of complementary/opposite colors, this model gives exactly the same result as using the RGB model.

  3. Monochrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monochrome

    Although color photography was possible even in the late 19th century, easily used color films, such as Kodachrome, were not available until the mid-1930s. In digital photography , monochrome is the capture of only shades of black by the sensor, or by post-processing a color image to present only the perceived brightness by combining the values ...

  4. Chromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromism

    In chemistry, chromism is a process that induces a change, often reversible, in the colors of compounds. In most cases, chromism is based on a change in the electron states of molecules, especially the π- or d-electron state, so this phenomenon is induced by various external stimuli which can alter the electron density of substances. It is ...

  5. Tint, shade and tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tint,_shade_and_tone

    In color theory, a tint is a mixture of a color with white, which increases lightness, while a shade is a mixture with black, which increases darkness. Both processes affect the resulting color mixture's relative saturation. A tone is produced either by mixing a color with gray, or by both tinting and shading. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auxochrome

    In organic chemistry, an auxochrome (from Ancient Greek αὐξάνω (auxanō) 'increase' and χρῶμα (chrōma) 'colour') is a group of atoms attached to a chromophore which modifies the ability of that chromophore to absorb light.

  7. Chromaticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromaticity

    Some color spaces separate the three dimensions of color into one luminance dimension and a pair of chromaticity dimensions. For example, the white point of an sRGB display is an x , y chromaticity of (0.3127, 0.3290), where x and y coordinates are used in the xyY space.

  9. ChromaFlair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChromaFlair

    The aluminium and chrome give the paint a vibrant metallic sparkle, while the glass-like coating acts like a refracting prism, changing the apparent color of the surface as the observer moves. [ 3 ] ChromaFlair paints contain no conventional absorbing pigments ; rather, the pigment is a light interference pigment .
