Examples of primary color in the following topics:
-
- Color is subdivided into the "primary colors" of red, yellow and blue, which cannot be mixed from other pigments, and the "secondary colors" of green, orange and violet, which result from different combinations of the primary colors.
- Primary and secondary colors are combined in various ways to create "tertiary colors".
- "Saturation" refers to the intensity of a color, for example the primaries are the most saturated or intense of the colors.
- Television screens, for example, use additive color since they are made up of the primary colors of red, blue and green.
- In subtractive color theory the primary colors are yellow, cyan and magenta.
-
- In the visual arts, color theory is a body of practical guidance to color mixing and the visual impacts of specific color combinations.
- Color theory subdivides color into the "primary colors" of red, yellow, and blue, which cannot be mixed from other pigments; and the "secondary colors" of green, orange and violet, which result from different combinations of the primary colors.
- Primary and secondary colors are combined in various mixtures to create "tertiary colors."
- Television screens, for example, use additive color as they are made up of the primary colors of red, blue and green (RGB).
- Subtractive color, or "process color," works as the reverse of additive color and the primary colors become cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK).

- A color scheme is the choice of colors that are used in range of media.
- Color theory subdivides color into the "primary colors" of red, yellow and blue, which cannot be mixed from other pigments; and the "secondary colors" of green, orange and violet, which result from different combinations of the primary colors.
- Primary and secondary colors are combined in various mixtures to create tertiary colors.
- In color theory, a color scheme is the choice of colors that are used in range of media.
- Analogous colors are groups of colors that are adjacent to each other on the color wheel, with one being the dominant color (typically a primary or secondary color) and two on either side complementing (most often tertiary colors).

- Color Harmony or Color Theory is considered a foundational composition principle of harmony that outlines the application of color in art.
- There are also definitions (or categories) of colors based on the color wheel: primary color, secondary color and tertiary color.
- Color theory was originally formulated in terms of three "primary" or "primitive" colors—red, yellow and blue (RYB)—because these colors were believed capable of mixing all other colors .
- According to traditional color theory (based on subtractive primary colors and the RYB color model), yellow mixed with violet, orange mixed with blue, or red mixed with green produces an equivalent gray and compose the painter's complementary colors.
- In color theory, neutral colors are colors easily modified by adjacent more saturated colors and they appear to take on the hue complementary to the saturated color.
-
- All three similarly employed novel techniques of color and composition, which established them as acclaimed artists north of Rome.
- In particular, Giorgione, Titian, and Veronese follows the Venetian School's preference of color over disegno.
- This extraordinary piece of colorism, executed on a grand scale rarely before seen in Italy, created a sensation.
- Paolo Veronese (1528–1588) was one of the primary Renaissance painters in Venice, well known for paintings such as The Wedding at Cana and The Feast in the House of Levi.
- Most of all, it is about the incandescence of light and color.
-
- Watercolor is a water-soluble painting medium known for its subtle, delicate colors and careful, layered brush work.
- Watercolor paintings are known for their subtle, delicate colors and careful, minimal brush work.
- Since the primary support for watercolor is paper, there is a fair amount of choice between different types.
- This technique allows colors to bleed and drift into each other, creating soft transitions between them.
- Watercolor paintings are known for their subtle, delicate colors and careful, minimal brush work.
-
- Tempera was the primary paint used until about 1400, at which point oil paint became more prominent.
- Because of the transparency of the paint, paintings in tempera rarely exhibit the deep saturation of color that can be achieved with oil paint.
- In fact, the colors of an unvarnished tempera painting resemble a pastel palette.
- However, unlike oil paintings which fade and yellow as time passes, once the varnish has been applied the colors deepen and do not change over time.

- Primary media in the Gothic period included sculpture, panel painting, stained glass, fresco, and illuminated manuscripts.
- Painting during the Gothic period was practiced in four primary media: frescoes, panel paintings, manuscript illumination, and stained glass.
- In the early part of the period, mainly black paint and clear or brightly colored glass was used but in the early fourteenth century, the use of compounds of silver painted on glass which was then fired, allowed a number of variations of color, centered on yellows, to be used with clear glass in a single piece.
- By the end of the period, designs increasingly used large pieces of glass which were painted with yellows as the dominant colors and relatively few smaller pieces of glass in other colors.
- These images, tiny at the bottom of the market, often crudely colored, were sold in thousands but are now extremely rare, most having been pasted to walls.

- During the period of Islamic invasions (11th through 16th centuries), the Rajput kingdoms proved to be the primary obstacle to the complete Muslim conquest of Hindu India.
- The colors used in Rajput painting were extracted from minerals, plant sources, conch shells, beetle wings, and sometimes even precious stones.
- The preparation of these colors was a lengthy process that could take weeks to accomplish.
- The Mewar school is associated with the courts of Chavand, Nathwara, Devgarh, Udaipur, and Sawar and is characterized by simplicity and vivid colors.
- The Kangra school emerged in the mid-18th century as the Basohli style began to fade and is characterized by curving lines, calmer colors, and delicate lyricism.
