Primary Colors ....

















The colors in the cartoon composition
here are called a 'Primary Color Scheme'.
In color theory, this means that all three of
the 'Primary Colors' (Red, blue,
and yellow) are used in the design
of the composition.

Primary colors have appeal in design just
by their very nature. Also, the primary
colors are called primary colors because they
are the three colors from which all other
colors ( secondary, tertiary, and similar colors )
are derived when color mixing, this in order to
arrive at any color desired ( besides black
and white ).
