Yellow, Red, Blue

Red, Yellow, and Blue are the obsolete primary colors. They were once thought to be the primary colors, but have since been shown by science to not be the primary colors. The problem is that there are too many people who worship the art masters of old, cling to the old primaries they used, and still teach them to others.

The correct primary colors for pigments are magenta, yellow, and cyan. These are the colors your color computer printer uses. Note that they are the three brightest pure hues you can see.

The primary colors of light are red, green, and blue. Your computer's color monitor uses these colors, since it makes an image by mixing light. These are the three colors the color receptors in your eye are sensitive to. They are the three darkest pure hues you can see.

Note that the primaries of each system are the secondary colors of the other system.
