1. Basic knowledge of color.
1.Color theory: Color is a mixture of three basic colors: red, green, and blue, and these colors are called the three primary colors. In addition, there are secondary colors such as yellow, magenta, and cyan and tertiary colors such as orange and purple, which can be made by mixing the three primary colors in different proportions.
2.Hue: Hue refers to how hot or cold a color is, usually indicated by its position on the color wheel. For example, red is on the warm end of the color wheel, and blue is on the cold end. Different shades can create different emotions and atmospheres.
Second, the way of color blending.
1.Mixing of three primary colors: By adjusting the ratio of red, green, and blue, you can mix various colors. For example, increasing the proportion of red gives you orange, increasing the proportion of green gives you cyan, increasing the proportion of blue gives you purple, and so on.
2.Secondary color blending: Mixing two secondary colors can produce a new color effect. For example, mixing yellow with cyan gives green, magenta with blue gives purple, orange with green gives yellow, and so on.
3.Third color mixing: Mixing three tertiary colors can get richer color variations. For example, orange and yellow can be mixed with red to get brown, purple and blue mixed with cyan to get dark purple, and so on.
4.Complementary color mixing: Complementary colors refer to the relative positions on the color wheel, such as red and green, yellow and violet, blue and orange, etc. Mixing complementary colors can create a strong contrasting effect, but care needs to be taken with the amount you use so that it doesn't get too harsh or out of harmony.
