Colorimetry

Primary colors

They are pure colors that are not produced by combining other colors

SECONDARY COLORS

These are colors produced by mixing two primary colors in the same proportion.

They are:

Violet/Iridescent = Blue + Red
Orange = Yellow + Red
Green/Matte = Blue + Yellow

Tertiary colors

It is the mixture of primary and secondary colors in the same proportion.

E.G.:

Red+Orange = Orange-Red
Red+Violet = Violet-Red / Mahogany
