  2. RYB color model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RYB_color_model

    An RYB color chart from George Field's 1841 Chromatography; or, A treatise on colours and pigments: and of their powers in painting Comparison between CMYK model and RYB model: ideal CMY (a), printed CMY (b), RYB approximation (c) The 1613 RYB color scheme of Franciscus Aguilonius (Francisci Agvilonii), with primaries yellow (flavus), red (rubeus), and blue (caeruleus) arranged between white ...

  3. Secondary color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_color

    Primary colors of the CMY color model: cyan, magenta, and yellow, mixed to form secondary colors red, green, and blue. The RGB color model is an additive mixing model, used to estimate the mixing of colored light, with primary colors red, green, and blue. The secondary colors are yellow, cyan and magenta as demonstrated here:

  4. Color mixing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_mixing

    The additive model is usually demonstrated by reflecting two beams of colored light off a white, matte surface (e.g. projectors) or by analyzing the sub-pixels of a color display, both of which follow the additive model closely. The most common additive color model is the RGB color model, which uses three primary colors: red, green, and blue ...

  5. Shades of red - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shades_of_red

    The color barn red is one of the colors on one of the milk paint color lists, paint colors formulated to reproduce the colors historically used on the American frontier and made, like those paints were, with milk. This color is mixed with various amounts of white paint to create any desired shade of the color barn red.

  6. Additive color - Wikipedia

    James Clerk Maxwell, with his color top that he used for investigation of color vision and additive color. Additive color or additive mixing is a property of a color model that predicts the appearance of colors made by coincident component lights, i.e. the perceived color can be predicted by summing the numeric representations of the component ...

  7. RGB color model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RGB_color_model

    The RGB color model is an additive color model [1] in which the red, green, and blue primary colors of light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors. The name of the model comes from the initials of the three additive primary colors , red, green, and blue.

  8. Color theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_theory

    Rather than adopt a more effective set of primary colors, [6] proponents of split-primary theory explain this lack of chroma by the purported presence of impurities, small amounts of other colors in the paints, or biases away from the ideal primary toward one or the other of the adjacent colors. Every red paint, for example, is said to be ...

  9. Red - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red

    It is a primary color in the RGB color model and a secondary color (made from magenta and yellow) in the CMYK color model, and is the complementary color of cyan. Reds range from the brilliant yellow-tinged scarlet and vermillion to bluish-red crimson , and vary in shade from the pale red pink to the dark red burgundy .
