Best Answer

The tertiary colors are created by mixing two secondary colors together. Tertiary colors are not the same as intermediates because intermediates are created by mixing one primary color with a secondary. Sometimes the intermediates are referred to as tertiary colors, BUT remember it isn't the other way around.

Examples of Tertiary colors:

- Orange + purple = russet

- Orange + green =citron

- Purple + green = olive

(These aren't all of the tertiary colors)

A way that you can tell intermediate and tertiary colors a part is that true tertiary colors have names of their own. Intermediate colors have names with their primary and secondary colors in them (i.e. Red-Violet, Blue-Violet, Red-Orange, Yellow-Orange, Blue-Green, Yellow-Green)
