like if you wanted to mix paint to get a color from a computer would you do the opposite of what the RGB value is? I’m confused
like if I wanted to take the RBG code R:99, G: 66, B, 33 wouldn’t it look more lightful than if I mixed paint into 1 part blue, 2 part green, 3 part red? how would you paint a color code?
Great explanation. Thank you.
Can you also tell me how a computer monitor makes Yellow when it only has RGB pixels?
Sure! On a spectrum of visible light, yellow has a wavelength between red and green. Therefore, combining red and green, the average wavelength is the same as the wavelength of yellow. In fact, a yellow pixel is really just a pair of red and green pixels on most monitors (except with certain types of expensive monitors in which each pixel has red, green, and blue instead of red, green, or blue).
For reference:
I hope this helps.
That makes sense. Thank you. I think the rules between additive and subtractive mixed together in my head and confused me.
I’ve been wondering - how do you make brown? Don’t really see it on the spectrum.
Dark orange, it’s only brown when contrasted with something brighter.
There is a technology connection video that goes into more details.
About 2 parts red to one part green.
red light + green light = yellow light
