primärfärgen
Primärfärgen, also known as primary color, is a color that cannot be created by mixing other colors. In the context of subtractive color mixing, which is used in painting and printing, the primary colors are cyan, magenta, and yellow. These colors are called subtractive because they absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect others, creating the color we see. When these three colors are combined, they create black. In contrast, additive color mixing, used in lighting and electronic displays, uses the primary colors red, green, and blue. When these colors are combined, they create white light. The concept of primary colors is fundamental in color theory and has applications in various fields, including art, design, and technology.
