Cyan can be mixed using specific blue pigments as not all flavors of blue are made from the same pigment.

The exact proportions have to be determined with careful experimentation. Start with a 2:1 mixture of whites (2 parts Zinc to 1 part Titanium). Add very small amounts of the blues beginning with Phthalo. Phthalo Blue has a very strong tinting strength and the smallest amounts will greatly effect the mixture.

Cyan Blue = Ultramarine Blue (PB29) + Phthalo Blue (PB15) + Zinc White(PW4) + Titanium White(PW6) => Cyan Blue

The inclusion of Zinc White is important for bringing out the hue. It is the most transparent of the whites with one significant caveat....it is prone to brittle cracking and flaking away. The Titanium mixture increases its durability and opacity.

To make it lighter, add white paint.

What colour would a cyan object be when light is shined on it?

When light is shined on a cyan object, it will appear cyan as long as the light source contains both blue and green wavelengths, which are the colors that make up cyan. If the light is white, the cyan object will reflect the blue and green light and thus still appear cyan. However, if the light is only red, the cyan object will appear black because it cannot reflect that color.

What colour is a red object when cyan light shines on it?

What color light will make a red sheet of paper look black?

Any light that does not contain the primary color red will make the sheet of paper look black. (for example green, blue, cyan,... but not yellow, violet,...) This is because the surface of the sheet is such that it absorbs all the colors of white light except red which is reflected and which is why it appears red in white light.
