Some Color Theory







The 3 Primary Colors are Yellow, Blue, and Red. You can mix Primary Colors to make Secondary Colors such as Orange, Violet, and Green. All the colors in between are Tertiary Colors.

Subtractive Colors can be shown through a Pigment Generated Model where the layered colors tend to get darker and muddier, while Additive Color can be shown through a Light Generated Model in which the layered colors get brighter. 

Colors affect our perception, and therefore can attract our eyes to certain objects or people. Big Businesses put a lot of thought into their logo, finding complementary colors that will attract consumers.

Color Intensity changes in relation to its surrounding color. Red against Black will be more prominent than Red against Orange.
