Primary, secondary and tertiary colors
PRIMARY COLORS
Blue, Red and Yellow, are known as ‘Primary’ for the sole reason that they cannot be produced by a mixture or a combination of any other colors. In the color wheel the Primary Colors are indicated by a capital letter ‘P’.
SECONDARY COLORS
From the 3 primary colors we can create 3 Secondary Colors with a mixture of any 2 primary colors. They are Orange obtained by a mixture of equal quantities of Red and Yellow, Green derived from a mixture of Yellow and Blue and Violet which is the resultant mixture of Blue with Red. The secondary colors are indicated by a 'S'.
TERTIARY COLORS
We can further create 6 more colors known as Tertiary Colors which are obtained from mixtures of Primary and Secondary colors. For example we get Red-Violet, Red-Orange, Blue-Green, Blue-Violet, Yellow-Green and Yellow-Orange colors. Again in the color wheel the tertiary colors are indicated by the capital letter, 'T'.
