✨🤩There are two primary ways to mix colors: additive and subtractive color mixing. ✨Each method is fundamental to understanding how colors blend and form new hues. 1.Additive Color Mixing Additive mixing involves combining different colors of light. This method is based on three primary colors: red, green, and blue (RGB). When combined, these colors create new colors by adding wavelengths together. For example, red and green light make yellow, red and blue create magenta, and blue and green produce cyan. When all three colors are mixed in equal proportions, they form white light. Additive color mixing is used in digital screens and lighting. 2. Subtractive Color Mixing Subtractive mixing involves combining pigments, dyes, or paints. The primary colors in this model are cyan, magenta, and yellow (CMY). When these #colors mix, they subtract wavelengths from white light, producing different colors. For instance, mixing cyan and magenta yields blue, magenta and yellow make red, and cyan and yellow produce green. Combining all three colors creates black or a very dark color. Subtractive color mixing is common in painting, printing, and other physical mediums. The perception of a new color depends on the #wavelengths that reach our eyes. #science #arts #colours

The perception of colour is not solely dependent on wavelengths. From a scientific point of view a particular wavelength will have a particular colour. However, it is down to the individual how that wavelength is then interpreted based on not only what they are taught but assuming they have full colour vision. For example, some may be deuteranopia: a type of red-green color blindness that makes it difficult to distinguish red and green pigments. In this case the medium wavelength sensitive cones (green) are missing. A deuteranope can only distinguish 2 to 3 different hues (usually of brown hues) whereas somebody with normal vision sees 7 different hues.

Those people they have practized early knew it easily intuitive just before the outcome.
