Paint colors are made by adding pigment or colors to white paint. The more of a certain color you add the deeper that color becomes. You can mix colors to get different results. If you add yellow to a white base, you will get yellow paint. If you add yellow and red, you will get orange paint. The more of a certain color you add, the deeper that color is. Just like mixing salt in water. The more salt you add, the saltier the water gets. The more blue pigment you add the deeper the blue gets.
