The study of colours II - JSS2 Cultural And Creative Art Past Questions and Answers - page 2

Color theory is the study of how colors interact, how they are perceived, and how they can be used effectively in various fields such as art, design, psychology, and science.

Primary colors are fundamental and cannot be created by mixing other colors. Secondary colors are created by mixing two primary colors, while tertiary colors are made by mixing a primary color with a secondary color.

Complementary colors are colors opposite each other on the color wheel. When placed together, they create high contrast and intensify each other.

Harmonious colors are colors that are adjacent or close to each other on the color wheel. They create a sense of unity and balance when used together.
