Although confusing, this is only one of several colour wheels in everyday use. They are all valid in their own ways (looking warily at the uppity commentators below). The 'common' wheel uses the primary colours Red/Yellow/Blue. The subtractive CMYK model used by printers is Cyan/Magenta/Yellow (accompanied with black) and apparently works best when mixing physical paint pigments. And the additive model, RGB (Red/Green/Blue) is what colour electrical displays, such as your television, uses and is based on how the human eye works.
CMY are primary: Red = Magenta + Yellow Indigo = Magenta + Cyan Turquoise = Cyan + a little of Yellow Purple = Magenta + a little of Cyan Orange = Yellow + a little of Magenta Lime = Yellow + Cyan And what do we have with RYB??? Red and Blue = dirty Purple. Yellow and Blue = dirty Green. It's a contaminated pallet. I do oil painting and deal with pigments on a daily basis.
Matter absorbs the light so it basically does the opposite and the opposite of the RGB rods in your eye are the CMY. You can prove it by taking an image of any of the RGB colors and editing it into negative. Conservative people still can't move on with their childhood primary colors RYB.

Color light vs Color pigment.... before saying ‘thats not the real color wheel’ understand that light vs pigment in theory are different Try to find Cyan in nature to make a pigment besides cyanobacteria and methane...
@@alisonfranyutti5643 cyan cannot be achieved from other colors. That's the point. You can mix cyan with ruby color and you will get BLUE. Because Cyan is primary and Blue is secondary, but not all the way around. Cyan-Magenta-Yellow is what primary colors are called.
I'm a bit confused by the traditional red, yellow, and blue primary color wheel in the art industry. We are all taught from childhood that RYB are the 3 primary colors via which all other colors can be mixed. However, from a scientific perspective, this simply isn't true. Color mixing for the purpose of creating art is based on the subtractive color model. The real 3 primary colors are cyan, magenta, and yellow. With the traditional RYB combination, you can't actually render the full color spectrum. Using only these 3 and mixing them will create a palate that appears muddy and dull. That is why a color printer always uses the CMY combination with the addition of black for shade. Could somebody explain to me why the classic RYB model is more desirable?
Printers use white in a completely different way than a painter does. Most printers don't have or use white ink, they simply adjust the opacity of a color and layers it to create various tones over the white surface it prints on. That is an arduous task to perform if you're not a machine. In painting you can just mix a color with white to create different tones.
For printers, it's CMY. For light, it's RGB. For physical art, RYB seems to have been the most popular, possibly because (relative to CMY) red, yellow, and blue are more easily obtainable pigments. There are a lot of red and blue flowers and minerals, but not so many cyan and magenta. Cultures all over the world embraced pigments that were easy to find. RYB was the long-term result. (Non-researched, btw. Don't quote me.)
I think it depends of where you buy the products. The names just change in some countries. When I buy paint, the primary colors are always labeled Cyan, Magenta and yellow. When I was young, I didn't understand why, because for me, they were just a slightly different red, and a very slightly different blue.
Cosmic Lawnmower 1. If we really cared about the secondaries of light then we would only paint with light. Do you follow and actually use the optimal paints closet to CYM? CYMK are not the “primaries” of subtractive paint mixing either-even though they will give us a much wider range of colors given that we have better modern pigments. The printing industry does NOT follow optimal CMYK just like most of us. Even they actually need and use more dyes/paints/inks outside of common printers AND still have trouble hitting peak colors-especially in the Red to YO area. CMYK also starts out “dull”. That is the nature of subtractive paint mixing. 2. From a “scientific perspective” there is not a set of 3 real “primary” paints in subtractive paint mixing that will make the entire color gamut possible-not even close. Essentially every decently chromatic paint in a triadic set of 3 with one each of A red member, A yellow member, and A blue member can mix every HUE. Notice that I did not say that they will match every paint, color, nor VALUE/CHROMA nor did I limit your choosing of paint. A “primary” paint color and color is ARBITRARY and can be real or imaginary-with only an imaginary set of 3 “primaries” able to define the entire color gamut possible. 3. You were taught “half truths” in grade school in part because of learning level and in part because some can not seem to “de-focus” on the “traditional” RYB colors chosen. You need to know though that most artists choose “primary” paints that will get them as close as possible to what they normally paint to start off with and usually have a couple of “Reds”, “Blues”, and “Yellows”. But it would be correct to say that one can not mix back to the chosen “primaries” in their chosen palette gamut of 3 from the mixes made from them nor can they mix one of the other “primaries” from the other two in the set. Normally no “color” is more intensely saturated as when it comes from the tube and normally a paint has properties that can not be matched by mixing from others and some paints can’t be matched in color at all by mixing. 4. The important things you need to know when choosing a palette is: What is your painting style? E.g. are you a colorist who needs to match bright and vivid colors most of the time or are you more of a realist and need to match more natural colors with the occasional need for bright and vivid? You need to keep in mind paint bias-not “temperature” as many teach (which is relative and confusing for many and should not be used in place of bias)-which way the paint leans in color: does your red lean orange or violet...etc. The last thing you need that is basic to know is: the farther apart 2 paints are from each other-the duller and less saturated the mix will be-and the closer they are-the more intense the chroma will be. To mix as much of the color gamut possible one will need more than just 3 “primary” paints plus raw whitest white plus the blackest black on the market. For in depth theory and a starter palette that has the most bang for the buck, may I suggest that you visit handprint.com? It is from a watercolorists point of view but is easily translatable to acrylics and oils-especially the theory. But I do agree...RYB should not be taught (alone).....but neither should CMYK...start from the beginning with the Human sight “primaries” of RGB then proceed to subtractive mixing involving substance uncertainty. Just like we start with RGB in additive mixing we should also start with RGB in subtractive mixing but (as one scientist said to me) our eyes can not detect the bright spectrum yellow in a mix of RG paints so we start with Y (I could be wrong but it has something to do with the YG reflectance waves that our eyes are already “seeing”). We can mix nice reds, blues, greens, and magenta’s and violets all day long but we have trouble with yellow. This is why we start with yellow instead of green then we proceed to the secondaries. Perhaps this is the MAJOR reason RYB in general is still taught but they never teach why...
Volgen Productions there are more than 5 “primary” colors. But let’s ignore that. Let’s also, take white and black out of the theoretical realm of light and dark and out of neutral and into the world of paints and pigments as colored paints. I will definitely give you white since we can not mix it all all but what makes you say black? I say black is also a “primary” but I am curious as to why you think it is?
Please make a tutorial in which all the color schemes or use, for example in which situation we can use Tone color, Complementary color etc, also Thanks for your this tutorial, :)
I'm still learning about color theory and how to apply it to my work and I will share more as I begin to learn more. For now, you may wan to watch my video on choosing a color scheme ruclips.net/video/NXcAhWfWhDA/видео.html
This is best also, i saw it but i already know about all the colors scheme, but i need and may be lot of Designer need to know how to apply these schemes i mean in which situation which scheme is best, thanks for your replay
I'll definitely keep this in mind! Showing other types of design examples will probably be more useful to designers. In general, though, as a designer you decide which colors to use, what level of saturation and what mood to provide based on the purpose of your project. That's why I analyze and explain several works of art on the second half of the video.
The three primary colours are actually magenta, yellow and cyan. Magenta and yellow form red, yellow and cyan form green and magenta and cyan form blue.🥰
@@pathological8231 you’re talking about the additive colour model, but I’m pretty sure we’re talking about the subtractive one. Yes, cyan can be created by mixing green and blue in light, but not paint. XXOrxngeVibesXX is right as he is talking about paint/subtractive mixing, not light/additive mixing.

Don't give attention to the uneducated people. They don't know how colors work and the science behind them. In color, there are only two principles, namely, the additive and the subtractive color principle: * LIGHT (RADIANT ENERGY) - When different light hues combine, it will create a lighter combination. It follows the additive color principle and it uses the RGB color model which creates white light when all are combined. * PIGMENT (MATTER) - When different pigment hues combine, it will create a darker combination. It follows the subtractive color principle and it uses the CMY color model which creates black pigment when all are combined. We have 3 cone cells in our eyes which detect red, green, and blue colors. That's why the screens use the RGB color model. Matter absorbs light and pigment is matter, therefore, the pigment does the opposite, the opposite of RGB is CMY. CMY is the more appropriate primary colors since they have a wider gamut (almost all colors) than RYB and can even make colors that RYB can't make. Also, RYB can't create pure black, they will create a grayish brownish muddy mixture and mix darker colors and its secondary colors are too dark and dull to paint different types of paintings. This RGB color model creates a perfect triangle in our color vision that bases off a white light in the center and by far, the most prevalent and effective since it can create pretty much almost perceivable colors and many electronic devices use it. That's why it is also recommended that we should use brighter CMY in arts and mixing colors in schools. IDK why. We should improve our learning, not just being conservative and sticking to the traditional primary colors learned in our childhood. There is not much difference between printing or layering and mixing. Both still add pigments and "subtract" light, so the resulting mixture will be darker. Layering uses translucent medium allowing the light to pass through the media, but the downside to this is that the last color that is layered on top will dominate and give the resulting color a tinge of the last color. Many didn't even know that mixing colors is like mixing a bag of sand or making a checker of alternating colors and seeing them from afar, not knowing that it's actually a mixture by those colors. Paints, crayons, and inks have hues that mix darker mixture, therefore, they are pigments. There are actually so many pigments, including sand, filters on top of each other, pigments found in organisms, food, plastics, cosmetics, color pencils, pastels, markers, etc. The color doesn't matter, the medium does matter. Inks use translucent medium while paints use an opaque medium. If paints use an opaque CMY medium, CMY will work. Why the heck would you use literally translucent CMY inks for painting? These RUclips videos also prove: ruclips.net/video/ByBsY-2U1kI/видео.html ruclips.net/video/dbcOcZw4g-I/видео.html ruclips.net/video/747uREIfnVg/видео.html This proofs also made me think that why are we so conservative that RYB are still taught in schools till this time.
Cyan magenta and yellow are the Primary colours. Red is magenta and yellow Blue is magenta and Cyan Green is yellow and cyan Stop misinforming people simple art tips woman

im currently taking up a 3D animation course and i didnt take my color theory class seriously and oh boy did i regret it. so now im here and seriously trying to learn now. hahaha fuck
Very clearly explained except the initial error about primary colours. The red you show is NOT a primary colour. It can be mixed from magenta and yellow. If you used this colour with the blue, the resultant purple would be dull or muted. The colours you use in a home printer are more aligned with true primary colours. Of course, you may have discovered this for yourself, since this video dates back a few years.
I grew up with the color wheel. Red is the darkest primary color, purple is the darkest secondary color and red-purple is the darkest tertiary color. Am I right or wrong?

Tone refers specifically to color mixing--when you add grey to a color/hue you've created a tone. Saturation refers to the percentage of purity or vividness of a color/hue. You can use saturation to describe a tone. Ex: a tone is desaturated or has low saturation. I hope this helps. From www.workwithcolor.com/color-properties-definitions-0101.htm "Tone is a color term commonly used by painters. Saturation is a color term commonly used by (digital / analog) imaging experts. Tone is a result of mixing a pure color with any neutral/grayscale color including the two extremes white and black. Saturation defines a range from pure color (100%) to gray (0%) at a constant lightness level. A pure color is fully saturated. From a perceptional point of view saturation influences the grade of purity or vividness of a color/image. A desaturated image is said to be dull, less colorful or washed out but can also make the impression of being softer."

@@alisonfranyutti5643 cyan cannot be achieved from other colors.
That's the point. You can mix cyan with ruby color and you will get BLUE.
Because Cyan is primary and Blue is secondary, but not all the way around.
Cyan-Magenta-Yellow is what primary colors are called.
Very clear video, thank you
Today is my arts exam n here i am watching this at morning 🤣
😂😂same
Very helpful! Spot on. Thank you.
so straight forward and we'll presented!
Thank you so much for this.
thank you. concise and valuable
Thanks alot, Simple and well explained.
Excellent Video - Thank you!
I'm a bit confused by the traditional red, yellow, and blue primary color wheel in the art industry. We are all taught from childhood that RYB are the 3 primary colors via which all other colors can be mixed. However, from a scientific perspective, this simply isn't true. Color mixing for the purpose of creating art is based on the subtractive color model. The real 3 primary colors are cyan, magenta, and yellow. With the traditional RYB combination, you can't actually render the full color spectrum. Using only these 3 and mixing them will create a palate that appears muddy and dull. That is why a color printer always uses the CMY combination with the addition of black for shade. Could somebody explain to me why the classic RYB model is more desirable?
Printers use white in a completely different way than a painter does. Most printers don't have or use white ink, they simply adjust the opacity of a color and layers it to create various tones over the white surface it prints on. That is an arduous task to perform if you're not a machine. In painting you can just mix a color with white to create different tones.
For printers, it's CMY. For light, it's RGB. For physical art, RYB seems to have been the most popular, possibly because (relative to CMY) red, yellow, and blue are more easily obtainable pigments. There are a lot of red and blue flowers and minerals, but not so many cyan and magenta. Cultures all over the world embraced pigments that were easy to find. RYB was the long-term result.
(Non-researched, btw. Don't quote me.)
I think it depends of where you buy the products. The names just change in some countries. When I buy paint, the primary colors are always labeled Cyan, Magenta and yellow. When I was young, I didn't understand why, because for me, they were just a slightly different red, and a very slightly different blue.
Cosmic Lawnmower
1. If we really cared about the secondaries of light then we would only paint with light. Do you follow and actually use the optimal paints closet to CYM? CYMK are not the “primaries” of subtractive paint mixing either-even though they will give us a much wider range of colors given that we have better modern pigments. The printing industry does NOT follow optimal CMYK just like most of us. Even they actually need and use more dyes/paints/inks outside of common printers AND still have trouble hitting peak colors-especially in the Red to YO area. CMYK also starts out “dull”. That is the nature of subtractive paint mixing.
2. From a “scientific perspective” there is not a set of 3 real “primary” paints in subtractive paint mixing that will make the entire color gamut possible-not even close. Essentially every decently chromatic paint in a triadic set of 3 with one each of A red member, A yellow member, and A blue member can mix every HUE. Notice that I did not say that they will match every paint, color, nor VALUE/CHROMA nor did I limit your choosing of paint. A “primary” paint color and color is ARBITRARY and can be real or imaginary-with only an imaginary set of 3 “primaries” able to define the entire color gamut possible.
3. You were taught “half truths” in grade school in part because of learning level and in part because some can not seem to “de-focus” on the “traditional” RYB colors chosen. You need to know though that most artists choose “primary” paints that will get them as close as possible to what they normally paint to start off with and usually have a couple of “Reds”, “Blues”, and “Yellows”. But it would be correct to say that one can not mix back to the chosen “primaries” in their chosen palette gamut of 3 from the mixes made from them nor can they mix one of the other “primaries” from the other two in the set. Normally no “color” is more intensely saturated as when it comes from the tube and normally a paint has properties that can not be matched by mixing from others and some paints can’t be matched in color at all by mixing.
4. The important things you need to know when choosing a palette is: What is your painting style? E.g. are you a colorist who needs to match bright and vivid colors most of the time or are you more of a realist and need to match more natural colors with the occasional need for bright and vivid? You need to keep in mind paint bias-not “temperature” as many teach (which is relative and confusing for many and should not be used in place of bias)-which way the paint leans in color: does your red lean orange or violet...etc. The last thing you need that is basic to know is: the farther apart 2 paints are from each other-the duller and less saturated the mix will be-and the closer they are-the more intense the chroma will be. To mix as much of the color gamut possible one will need more than just 3 “primary” paints plus raw whitest white plus the blackest black on the market. For in depth theory and a starter palette that has the most bang for the buck, may I suggest that you visit handprint.com? It is from a watercolorists point of view but is easily translatable to acrylics and oils-especially the theory.
But I do agree...RYB should not be taught (alone).....but neither should CMYK...start from the beginning with the Human sight “primaries” of RGB then proceed to subtractive mixing involving substance uncertainty. Just like we start with RGB in additive mixing we should also start with RGB in subtractive mixing but (as one scientist said to me) our eyes can not detect the bright spectrum yellow in a mix of RG paints so we start with Y (I could be wrong but it has something to do with the YG reflectance waves that our eyes are already “seeing”). We can mix nice reds, blues, greens, and magenta’s and violets all day long but we have trouble with yellow. This is why we start with yellow instead of green then we proceed to the secondaries. Perhaps this is the MAJOR reason RYB in general is still taught but they never teach why...
Volgen Productions there are more than 5 “primary” colors. But let’s ignore that. Let’s also, take white and black out of the theoretical realm of light and dark and out of neutral and into the world of paints and pigments as colored paints. I will definitely give you white since we can not mix it all all but what makes you say black? I say black is also a “primary” but I am curious as to why you think it is?
What I really don‘t get, is, when we have three primary colours, why does splitting the colour wheel in half, in warm/cold hues, feel so natural?
thank you for the Information a lot I wrote all of your great suff
the video was awesome ❤️👍
Can Please make video on colours physiology also👈
Please make a tutorial in which all the color schemes or use, for example in which situation we can use Tone color, Complementary color etc, also Thanks for your this tutorial, :)
I'm still learning about color theory and how to apply it to my work and I will share more as I begin to learn more. For now, you may wan to watch my video on choosing a color scheme ruclips.net/video/NXcAhWfWhDA/видео.html
This is best also, i saw it but i already know about all the colors scheme, but i need and may be lot of Designer need to know how to apply these schemes i mean in which situation which scheme is best, thanks for your replay
I'll definitely keep this in mind! Showing other types of design examples will probably be more useful to designers. In general, though, as a designer you decide which colors to use, what level of saturation and what mood to provide based on the purpose of your project. That's why I analyze and explain several works of art on the second half of the video.
When you said "Hi" in the video I thougt it was an advertising lol.
Thank for sharing
Good video!
Yes
Wow...sure it was a lot. But it helped my understand a load! Thank you
The three primary colours are actually magenta, yellow and cyan.
Magenta and yellow form red, yellow and cyan form green and magenta and cyan form blue.🥰
You can make cyan by mixing equal amounts of green and blue, red and green make yellow, and blue and red make magenta
@@pathological8231 you’re talking about the additive colour model, but I’m pretty sure we’re talking about the subtractive one.
Yes, cyan can be created by mixing green and blue in light, but not paint. XXOrxngeVibesXX is right as he is talking about paint/subtractive mixing, not light/additive mixing.
This video is really awesome and it helps me a lot.. Specially for my tattooing.. Thank you so much..
Great! Really helpful!
I liked the voice-over of the girl too :)
Great course! Thank you so much!
Nerd life
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
THE PRIMARY COLORS ARE MAGENTA CYAN AND YELLOW!!!!!
IM AND ARTIST AND I HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN THIS TRY MIXING RED AND BLUE PAINT TOGETHER AND YOU WONT GET PURPLE
THEN MIX MAGENTA/PINK WITH CYAN AND YOU GET PURPLE!!!!! 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩
THIS IS MIS INFORMATION
wow
i learnt a lot more from this video
am so excited that i found this video
i liked the video and also i subscribed your channel
i hope in future i will learn more from this channel

The music makes me feel like I'm in an anime. :D
AaronMetallion 🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣😂
AaronMetallion I didnt even notice the music
Why not Cyan Magenta Yellow?
Jackson John McLean because if you mix those with paint it won't look right
Those are the primary colors for light. This video is about pigments.
Don't give attention to the uneducated people. They don't know how colors work and the science behind them.
In color, there are only two principles, namely, the additive and the subtractive color principle:
* LIGHT (RADIANT ENERGY) - When different light hues combine, it will create a lighter combination. It follows the additive color principle and it uses the RGB color model which creates white light when all are combined.
* PIGMENT (MATTER) - When different pigment hues combine, it will create a darker combination. It follows the subtractive color principle and it uses the CMY color model which creates black pigment when all are combined.
We have 3 cone cells in our eyes which detect red, green, and blue colors. That's why the screens use the RGB color model. Matter absorbs light and pigment is matter, therefore, the pigment does the opposite, the opposite of RGB is CMY. CMY is the more appropriate primary colors since they have a wider gamut (almost all colors) than RYB and can even make colors that RYB can't make. Also, RYB can't create pure black, they will create a grayish brownish muddy mixture and mix darker colors and its secondary colors are too dark and dull to paint different types of paintings.
This RGB color model creates a perfect triangle in our color vision that bases off a white light in the center and by far, the most prevalent and effective since it can create pretty much almost perceivable colors and many electronic devices use it. That's why it is also recommended that we should use brighter CMY in arts and mixing colors in schools. IDK why. We should improve our learning, not just being conservative and sticking to the traditional primary colors learned in our childhood.
There is not much difference between printing or layering and mixing. Both still add pigments and "subtract" light, so the resulting mixture will be darker. Layering uses translucent medium allowing the light to pass through the media, but the downside to this is that the last color that is layered on top will dominate and give the resulting color a tinge of the last color. Many didn't even know that mixing colors is like mixing a bag of sand or making a checker of alternating colors and seeing them from afar, not knowing that it's actually a mixture by those colors.
Paints, crayons, and inks have hues that mix darker mixture, therefore, they are pigments. There are actually so many pigments, including sand, filters on top of each other, pigments found in organisms, food, plastics, cosmetics, color pencils, pastels, markers, etc. The color doesn't matter, the medium does matter. Inks use translucent medium while paints use an opaque medium. If paints use an opaque CMY medium, CMY will work. Why the heck would you use literally translucent CMY inks for painting?
These RUclips videos also prove:

This proofs also made me think that why are we so conservative that RYB are still taught in schools till this time.
Worthful video thank you
you're really cute
thanks for the useful information
Cyan magenta and yellow are the Primary colours.
Red is magenta and yellow
Blue is magenta and Cyan
Green is yellow and cyan
Stop misinforming people simple art tips woman
Ms can you do a video with what colors fit best with certain skin tone or if you have one or know someone could I get a link to it ? Thanks. I came here from Think before you sleep channel.
I am confused about the following things:
Everything and everything.
That is all I don't understand.
Thanks for share the information
im currently taking up a 3D animation course and i didnt take my color theory class seriously and oh boy did i regret it. so now im here and seriously trying to learn now. hahaha fuck
Hi I like the vídeo but I have a question about it so I am Confused on the Split complements.
That's really great information.
Thank you from India Delhi
You should also buy white and black paint as well
We legit used this video in art class.
i have to watch this for school

The temperatures shown here are wrong. Red-purple is a warm color, and yellow-green is a cool color. Should correct that...
This was so helpful! Thank you so much, amazing you!
May use your video for reference???
This was everything I wanted to know in one video! Thank you!
Thank you very much.....This really helped me a lot...especialy that it is already out examination tommorow...
Why are the primary colors not red, blue and green?
Are tones the same as desaturated colors?
Thank you so much for sharing this! Quick and straight to the point, I love it!
God bless you all!
Primary colors are cyan magenta and yellow
i've learned a lot today. Thanks. Now how to remember it lolz...great vid!
It was amazing!
This is great! Really informative. I just cringed a bit at the “red-purple” and “blue-purple” bit. “Violet” girl! Violet! Lol
Very clearly explained except the initial error about primary colours. The red you show is NOT a primary colour. It can be mixed from magenta and yellow. If you used this colour with the blue, the resultant purple would be dull or muted. The colours you use in a home printer are more aligned with true primary colours.
Of course, you may have discovered this for yourself, since this video dates back a few years.
I grew up with the color wheel. Red is the darkest primary color, purple is the darkest secondary color and red-purple is the darkest tertiary color. Am I right or wrong?
Me: 4:59 minutes ago: "Pfff... everyone understand colours:
Also Me: "Ok...yeah, makes sense, that's easy... ok... yeah... what? ....wait....whaaaat? .... Ok, Im back... wait no... what the.... what are those arrows..? WHAAAT?"
someone please tell me the difference between saturation and tone. I don't really get it. Thank you in advance!!~
Tone refers specifically to color mixing--when you add grey to a color/hue you've created a tone. Saturation refers to the percentage of purity or vividness of a color/hue. You can use saturation to describe a tone. Ex: a tone is desaturated or has low saturation. I hope this helps.
From www.workwithcolor.com/color-properties-definitions-0101.htm
"Tone is a color term commonly used by painters. Saturation is a color term commonly used by (digital / analog) imaging experts.
Tone is a result of mixing a pure color with any neutral/grayscale color including the two extremes white and black. Saturation defines a range from pure color (100%) to gray (0%) at a constant lightness level. A pure color is fully saturated.
From a perceptional point of view saturation influences the grade of purity or vividness of a color/image. A desaturated image is said to be dull, less colorful or washed out but can also make the impression of being softer."
