Colors are very simple. We have three main colors: red, blue, and yellow. When we mix these colors, we get new ones like green, orange, and purple. Some colors feel warm, like red and yellow. Other colors feel cool, like blue and green. Black, white, gray, and brown are normal, simple colors. We can make colors lighter or darker. We can also make colors stronger or weaker.
