Chinese traditional color modulation method

Brown with green: green+red = brown. The principle of color matching is to add the three primary colors of red, green and blue in different proportions to form mixed color, which can be called additive mixed color. Brown is to use this principle to mix red and green into brown.

Brown is divided into dark brown and light brown. A little more white on the basis of brown will have a light brown effect and the color will be gray. A little black will make it dark brown. It should be noted that don't add too much black, otherwise it will feel dirty.

Basic principles of color mixing:

1, where two colors are mixed in a proper proportion to produce white light, that is, complementary colors. For example, red and light turquoise, orange and cyan, yellow and blue, green and purple are complementary colors.

2. When two non-complementary colors are mixed, a new intermediate color between them will be produced. For example, red and yellow mix to produce orange, and blue and red mix to produce purple. The hue of the intermediate color is more than one color, and the saturation depends on the position of the two colors in the spectral trajectory. The closer you get, the more saturated you are.

3. if color A+ color B= color c, if there is no color b, color X+ color Y= color B. then a+(x+y) = C. it shows that each mixed color itself can also be obtained by mixing other colors. For example, if yellow and blue are mixed, red and green can be used instead of yellow, because "red and green = yellow".
