A color wheel is also sometimes called a color circle. The colors are organized around the circle in a way to show the relationship between them. Primary colors include blue, yellow and red. Secondary colors are green, orange and violet. There are also colors referred to as tertiary colors and this includes red--orange, red--violet, yellow--orange, yellow--green, blue--violet and blue--green.
The three primary colors are situated on the color wheel equally spaced out from one another. In between these primary colors on the color wheel are the colors that can be made by combining those two primary colors. For example, the primary color yellow is usually situated near the top of the color wheel. Between yellow and the next primary color, red, there will be the colors that would be found when yellow and red are combine. This would include orange-yellow, orange, orange-red.
The color wheel not only shows the relationship between all of the colors but can also be used to choose colors for art or design based on how the colors complement each other on the color wheel.
The basic color wheel is a circle that has a hole in the center. It is divided into sixths and every other one is red, blue, and yellow. And in between are the secondary colors, orange purple, and green. the secondary colors are in between the two primary colors that, when mixed together, make the secondary color. The order goes (clockwise): Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, then purple. See link below.
The color wheel is used to show the relationship between colors. Complementary colors are across from each other. Triadic colors are the ones at the points of an equilateral triangle. The split complementaries of a color are the ones immediately to the left and right of the original color's complementary. Analgous colors are next to each other. Quaternary colors are those touched by the corners of a rectangle. All of these sets of colors work well together and create unique looks and moods to paintings. You can dull a color by adding its complement. Sound confusing? You can buy a nice pocket sized one from an art supply store that demonstrates all of this.
