Mixing of Colors:
Color mixing involves combining two or more colors to create new colors. The primary colors (red, blue, yellow) can be mixed to create secondary colors (green, orange, purple). Tertiary colors result from mixing a primary color with a secondary color. Understanding how colors interact is essential in art and design for creating visual interest and harmony.
