Secondary Colors
Green, orange, and purple are created by mixing two primary colors, expanding your palette for richer compositions.
Complementary Colors
Colors opposite each other on the color wheel create striking contrasts when placed side by side, adding drama to your artwork.
Analogous Colors
Colors next to each other on the color wheel produce a harmonious and soothing effect, perfect for peaceful compositions.
