In painting, white pigment can be used to describe white, and white is also a color that cannot be adjusted.
Mixing white pigment with black pigment can get gray, and mixing with other pigments can weaken the hue of other colors and improve brightness. In the creation of Chinese painting and watercolor painting, white paper is often used to leave white space in the picture.
White is a special color, and it can even be said that white is not a color, because white only represents the light source in painting. Tones of other colors: colors have three primary colors, that is, other colors are composed of these three tones, namely, red, yellow and blue. This is the so-called primary color. The color in which the primary color is mixed with the primary color is called the intermediate color, for example:
Red+yellow = orange
Yellow+blue = green
Blue+red = purple
Then orange, green and purple are called intermediate colors. The harmony between the intermediate color and the intermediate color is called multicolor, and the multicolor color system is of course the most. Tuhuang, Tuhong, Hongshi and so on are all compound colors. To sum up, except achromatic color, all other colors are mixed with primary colors. The primary color of the original tone is the intermediate color, and the intermediate color (or intermediate color) is a composite color, so the composite color is also called the third pass color, the intermediate color is called the second pass color, and the primary color is called the first pass color. The purity of primary colors is the highest, followed by intermediate colors, and composite colors are the lowest!
Extended data:
White is a color that contains all colors of light in the spectrum and is usually considered as "colorless". White has the highest brightness and colorless phase. White light can be obtained by mixing the three primary colors of light in the spectrum: blue, red and green in a certain proportion. The mixture of all visible light in the spectrum is also white light.
White is a neutral color, which is often used as the background color of a page, and also in printed matter. There is a misunderstanding that white is boring, or it will look old-fashioned and nothing new, but many designers have used white to create beautiful design works.
There are various color variations in the application of white in design. White includes antique white, milky white, hemp white, off-white, paper color, snow white, pearl white and ivory white, which will appear milder or less rigid than pure white. A lot of white can be matched with light blue to make a color wheel in winter style, or it can be matched with yellow or pink to make a summer taste.
A small amount of white can light up a design well, and it can also make dark red, green, blue and purple look more eye-catching. If you are American, French, British, Swedish (and some other countries), red, white and blue can create a patriotic color wheel. Black and white are the most contrasting combinations, and you can use them to convey a sense of seriousness or comedy.
