  1. Colour Study 1 Yellow Yellow. Groon Green Blue-Green Violet ellow Orange Red-Orange Red Red- Violet Violet This is the basic color wheel and it will guide you in making color choices. Red, blue and yellow are primary colors. When you mix red and yellow, you get orange; mix blue and yellow, you get green; mix red and blue, you get violet. Orange, green and violet are called secondary colors. Tertiary colors like red-violet and blue-violet are derived by mixing a primary color with a secondary color. All colors have tints, tones and shades. A tint is the variation of that color when mixed with white; A tone is the variation of that color when mixed with grey; a shade is the variation of that color when mixed with black.

Analogous colors are any three or four colors next to each other on the wheel. For example, orange, yellow-orange, and yellow. With analogous colors, it's best to avoid hues as they can be jarring. Instead, focus on tints of analogous colors. Triadic colors are any three colors that are equally apart on the color wheel. For example, red, yellow and blue . The Triadic scheme is also high-contrast, but more balanced than complementary colors. The trick here is to let one color dominate and accent with the other two. Tetradic or double complementary colors uses four colors together, in the form of two sets of complementary colors. For example, blue and orange is paired with yellow and violet.
