Artist's tip (Light adds, paint darkens): On a screen (light): red + green = yellow, green + blue = cyan, red + blue = magenta, all three = white. With paint: red + yellow = orange, blue + yellow = green, red + blue = purple, all three = brown. Light gets lighter as you mix; paint gets darker. Screen primaries: red, green, blue; paint primaries: red, yellow, blue.
