Unit 10 Light CONTINUED


Today, we learned about color mixing !! woo!
Everyone learns how to mix colors, but the color wheel for pigments is completely different from the color wheel for lights. The primary colors for pigments are, red (or magenta), yellow, and blue (or cyan), but the primary colors for light are red, green, and blue. So in the picture to the left, there are two shadows because there are two light sources ( blue and green). On one side, the shadow is blue, because this means that Mr. Blake is blocking the green light, so there is an absence of green light, and vice versa!
