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.

There are four colors in a tetradic color scheme. The beginning of the word, tetra-, is a Greek prefix meaning four. A tetradic color scheme is also called a double-complementary color scheme. The four colors are actually two sets of complementary colors. This means that you can find a tetradic color scheme by drawing a square or rectangle inside of the color wheel and choosing the colors on the corners.
False. In color theory, complementary colors are pairs that, when combined, cancel each other out, creating a grayscale color. The number nine does not correspond to a color in this context, as complementary colors are typically identified using hues on the color wheel.

colors across from one another on the color wheel.
A split complimentary color scheme is a variation of the complimentary color scheme. It involves choosing a base color and then using the two colors adjacent to its complementary color on the color wheel. This creates a color palette that is visually pleasing and balanced.
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.

The seven color schemes are monochromatic, analogous, complementary, split complementary, double complementary, triadic, and tone on tone.

Split-complementary color schemes offer more versatility and balance compared to complementary schemes. By using two adjacent colors to complement the base color, split-complementary schemes create a harmonious and visually interesting result without the high contrast and potential clash often found in complementary schemes.
A complementary color scheme consists of colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel. These colors create a high contrast and vibrancy when used together, making them visually striking. Examples of complementary color pairs include red and green, blue and orange, and yellow and purple.
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.
