Color Design
Using the 3 primary colors (red, blue, yellow), create the three secondary colors (green, violet, orange). Then, mix the primary colors with the secondary colors to create the tertiary colors (blue-green, blue -violet, etc). Each hue should have 3 shades and 3 tints . In total, you should have at least 84 different hues on your “Color Wheel.” When finished, all sections should be opaque and pure .
