1. Color Theory

2. Primary Colors Red, Blue, and Yellow.
These cannot be made by combining any other colors.

3. Secondary Colors Orange, Green, Purple.
These are made by mixing 2 primary colors together.
Red + Yellow=Orange
Blue + Yellow=Green
Red + Blue=Purple

4. Tertiary/Intermediate Colors
Colors made by mixing 1 primary color with 1 secondary color (red-orange, yellow-green, blue-purple, ect.)
These are all the other colors found between the primary and secondary colors (not one of the main 6).

7. White and Black
White is the combination of all colors and therefore IS a color.
White + a color= Tint.
Black is the absence of color and therefore is NOT a color.
Black + a color= Shade.

10. Monochromatic Scheme Latin for One (mono) Color (chromatic)
All the colors (tints and shades) of a single hue.
A hue with different degrees of black and white added.
**Hue means the pure form of a color

14. Complimentary Colors
Hues directly opposite one another on the color wheel.
A primary paired with a secondary that made each other look better.
Blue is complimentary to Orange
Yellow is complimentary to Purple
Red is complimentary to Green

19. Analogous Scheme
Group of 3-5 colors that are beside each other on the color wheel.
1 being the dominant color and 2 on either side for accents/details.
Pick 3 colors from the main 6 (primary and secondary) and the 2 tertiary colors in between will fall into place.

22. Warm And Cool Colors Warm: Red, Yellow, and Orange
Cool: Blue, Green, and Purple
Both sets of colors are analogous because they are adjacent to each other on the color wheel
*These are not the only examples of Analogous colors, just common ones.

24. Triadic Scheme Uses 3 colors equally spaced around the color wheel
The colors should be carefully balanced –Let 1 color dominate and use the 2 others for accent/details.
*Primary and secondary colors are common examples of Triadic.
