What are the Primary Colours?
There are three primary colours. The primary colours are red, yellow, and blue.
The primary colours are the first and most essential of all the colours. The primary colours are made or manufactured. This simply means that the primary colours cannot be made by mixing other colours together. For example, no two colours mixed together, we'll create a primary colour, for example, yellow and blue will not create red, and purple and orange will not create red.
However, you can mix almost all of the other colours, using the primary colours. For example, the secondary colours. They are also three secondary colours. The secondary colours, orange, green, and purple. The secondary colours are made by mixing two primary colours together.
Red and yellow makes orange, yellow and blue makes green, and blue and red makes purple.
