What are the primary colors from lightest to darkest?

There are three primary colors used in the fine arts, blue, red and yellow. We call them primary colors because they cannot be created by using any other colors and it is possible to make almost any other color by using combinations of them. Black and white pigments are used to lighten and darken the combinations. The primary colors used in printing are cyan, magenta and yellow, plus black. Regarding the above answer, while artists have long called blue, red, and yellow the primary colors, the actual primary colors are exactly the same for paint as they are for ink, dye, and any other material medium. This can easily be demonstrated by trying to actually mix, for instance, red and blue to get purple. The result will be unacceptable, but magenta and cyan in the right proportions will make everything from blue to purple. Doesn't matter whether you mix inks or paints; they are the same pigments. So the surprising answer to your question in the most scientific sense is that magenta, cyan, and yellow each absorb exactly one third of the light spectrum and reflect the other two thirds. But in practice, yellow will be perceived as lighter than magenta and cyan. Magenta and cyan would seem about the same lightness depending on the product and the concentration and type of pigment it contains.

Is purple a real color?

Yes, purple is a real color! Why wouldn't it be? It is just a mixture of two other real colors, red and blue, thus making it also a real color. All things have a real color and all colors are real colors, otherwise why would we call it a color? Yes you could easily say that it isn't because it isn't one of the three primary colors, but you would also be saying that black, white, and basically all colors except for yellow, blue, and red aren't colors either because they aren't primary colors either. Your would ultimately be going against our whole world, too, because you would be saying that we are all wrong even thought this is what our society believes and agreed on a VERY long time ago and we still agree on this.
