Take one set of complementary colors; say blue and orange. For a single split-complementary you would use orange and the two colors adjacent to blue, but not blue (green-blue and violet-blue).

To make a double split-complementary use the four colors adjacent to the original complementary pair. The colors you would use are green-blue, violet-blue, yellow-orange, and red-orange.

THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS A TETRADIC COLOR SCHEME WHICH USES TWO SETS OF COMPLEMENTARY COLORS.

Why would the splits complementary color scheme be easier to work with than the complementary color scheme?

The split complementary color scheme provides a wider range of colors by using a base color and two adjacent colors to its complement. This can make it easier to create a balanced composition as it offers more variety and flexibility compared to the stark contrast of the traditional complementary color scheme, which can be challenging to work with without careful handling to avoid overwhelming visual effects.

What is split-complementary color?

Begin with what will represent the dominant color (as found on the traditional RYB color wheel). Let us say that primary blue, is the dominant color to be used. Follow blue across the color wheel, directly opposite, and find the secondary color orange. The two colors adjacent (next to) orange are the split-complementaries, namely yellow-orange and red-orange. To use a limited palette driven by split-complementary colors, assign the non-primary colors to be primaries for the sake of color mixing. In other words, using the colors above...blue would be the dominant primary, yellow-orange would play the part of yellow for the sake of mixing, and red-orange would be the choice for red. To mix say the color green take blue...plus the yellow-orange. It will not be the common green one ordinarily thinks of as comes from blue plus yellow, but it will be a green unique and true to the split-complementary palette chosen. The painter will find a natural working color harmony imbued by this palette strategy.

What is the complementary colour of white?

Scientifically, complementary colors are those that, when mixed, produce a neutral grey. Throughout the history of art, green was considered to be the complementary of red, but the reason for that was the technological limitations that made it impossible to create more colors at the time. We now know that the actual complementary of RED is CYAN. Complementaries: Red->Cyan Green->Magenta Blue->Yellow
