  2. Complementary colors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementary_colors

    In the RGB model, the primary colors are red, green, and blue. The complementary primary–secondary combinations are red – cyan, green – magenta, and blueyellow. In the RGB color model, the light of two complementary colors, such as red and cyan, combined at full intensity, will make white light, since two complementary colors contain ...

  3. Secondary color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_color

    A RYB color wheel with tertiary colors described under the modern definition. RYB is a subtractive mixing color model, used to estimate the mixing of pigments (e.g. paint) in traditional color theory, with primary colors red, yellow, and blue. The secondary colors are green, purple, and orange as demonstrated here: red.

  4. Color theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_theory

    Warm colors are often said to be hues from red through yellow, browns, and tans included; cool colors are often said to be the hues from blue-green through blue violet, most grays included. There is a historical disagreement about the colors that anchor the polarity, but 19th-century sources put the peak contrast between red-orange and greenish ...

  5. Color mixing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_mixing

    For practical additive color models, an equal superposition of all primaries results in neutral (gray or white). In the RGB model, an equal mixture of red and green is yellow, an equal mixture of green and blue is cyan and an equal mixture of blue and red is magenta. [1] : 4.2 Yellow, cyan and magenta are the secondary colors of the RGB model.

    A 1908 color wheel with red, green, and violet "plus colors" and magenta, yellow, and cyan blue "minus colors". The typical artists' paint or pigment color wheel includes the blue, red, and yellow primary colors. The corresponding secondary colors are green, orange, and violet or purple.

  8. List of colors by shade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_colors_by_shade

    Brown colors are dark or muted shades of reds, oranges, and yellows on the RGB and CMYK color schemes. In practice, browns are created by mixing two complementary colors from the RYB color scheme (combining all three primary colors). In theory, such combinations should produce black, but produce brown because most commercially available blue ...

  9. Primary color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_color

    The most common color mixing models are the additive primary colors (red, green, blue) and the subtractive primary colors (cyan, magenta, yellow). Primary colors can also be conceptual (not necessarily real), either as additive mathematical elements of a color space or as irreducible phenomenological categories in domains such as psychology and ...
