now, lets talk about colours! we shall talk about the 3 main types of colours: Primary, Secondary and Junior College complementary colours. When presenting a design or an idea, your choice of colours is very important as well. Many surveys have shown that very young children like bright, vibrant colours (reds, yellows and oranges etc...) while older people like more gentle or sophisticated colours and tones such as shades of blue. It also very important for a designer to know how colours are put together as this may help them in the selection of the suitable colour for a certain age group.
primary colours: These colours cannot be created through mixing other colours together, they are colours in their own right. The three primary colours are RED, YELLOW and BLUE.
when primary colours are mixed together, they produce what we call SECONDARY COLOURS. The equation below shows the combination needed to produce secondary colours.

YELLOW+BLUE=GREEN
BLUE+RED=PURPLE
RED+YELLOW=ORANGE

The colour wheel (below) can be used to help remember primary and secondary colours. The secondary colours are in between the primary colours, for example - between red and yellow is orange. Quite simply, mixing the primary colours of red and yellow paint together will produce the secondary colour orange!
the colour wheel...

Another important thing about the colour wheel is that colours opposite each other on the colour wheel usually works well together as a colour combination. These is known as COMPLEMENTARY COLOURS.
