What is color? What's so special about about it huh? Well let me begin at the basics. There are three types of color, primary, secondary, and tertiary. The primary colors include red, yellow, and blue. When various combinations of those colors are mixed then you get the secondary colors: green, purple, and orange. For example, blue and yellow combine to create green. Tertiary colors, to go even deeper, are all the colors between the primary and secondary colors. There can also be this great thing called additive and subtractive color models. Subtractive color comes from a pixel generated model and additive is derived from light generated models. Color can also be very powerful. The types of colors we choose for our art can evoke differing feeling. For example Black might be associated with death and blue could be associated with sadness.
