Painting colour
On the top you can see colours from black to white
And on the bottom you can see colours from red to blue
It was difficult to go from one colour to another colour
This is my colour wheel
I like to paint with primary colours.
In the middle you can see the primary colours:
yellow, red and blue, and around the primary colours you can see the secondary colours: green, orange and purple.
1666 Sir Isaac Newton first discovered that all colours can be seen in natural white light. In art, when painting, all colours can be made from the 3 primary colours: red, blue and yellow. When 2 primary colours are mixed, it creates a secondary colour. The secondary colours are: green, purple and orange. When black is added it is called shade. When white is added it is called tint. There are many combinations you can make.
