Beginnings Of Color Theory

When starting off into the pool of colors, we should base ourselves in square one. After breaking through all the mixes we are left with only 3 primary colors. These are red, blue, and yellow, and they are the root ingredients from which all other colors manifest.


These primary colors may be combined together in a mixing process to create other color scheme. These are known as secondary colors and will always contain a mix of 2 primaries. These three secondary colors are orange, violet, and green. This color scheme is based off the sample default style. When you start designing for web and print it may be required to switch between different color models. These include RGB and CMYK which are notoriously utilized in digital and print design, respectively.
