Artist's tip (Name the parents): Two primaries make a secondary: red + yellow = orange, blue + yellow = green, red + blue = purple. A primary + its neighbouring secondary make a tertiary: red + orange = red-orange, blue + green = blue-green. White lightens: red + white = pink, blue + white = light blue; black + white = grey. All three primaries together make brown.
