1. PRIMARY COLOURS Some colours are called absolutes colours, that are the: yellow , magenta colour and the cyan colour. But the cyan and magenta colours didn’t exist in the colours letters by the artists. It considered that the primary colours : blue eftalo , yellow cadmium pale and alizarin crinson. But usually the primary colours are the : blue , yellow and red. From the primary colours are born the secondary colours

2. SECONDARY COLOURS A secondary color is a color made by mixing two or more primary colors in a given color space.

3. TERTIARY COLOURS A tertiary color or quaternary color (called intermediate colors ) is a color made by mixing either one primary color with one secondary color , or two secondary colors, in a given color space . Tertiary colors are a combination of full saturation of one primary color plus half saturation of another primary color and none of a third primary color.

4. THE COLOUR WHEEL - A color wheel or color circle is an abstract illustrative organization of color hues around a circle that shows relationships between primary colors , secondary colors , tertiary colors etc. -A color circle based on spectral wavelengths appears with red at one end of the spectrum and violet at the other.

5. COMPLEMENTARY COLOURS C omplementary colors are pairs of colors which, when combined, cancel each other out. This means that when combined, they produce black.The pairs of complementary colors vary depending upon whether the colors are physical or from ligh. Using the CMYK we can create all the colours that exists (This colours are the red – cyan , green – magenta , and blue – yellow .)
