1 PRIMARY COLORS Red, yellow and blue
In traditional color theory, these are the 3 pigment colors that can not be mixed or formed by any combination of other colors. All other colors are derived from these 3 hues

2 primary + primary = secondary
red + yellow = orange yellow + blue = green blue + red = purple SECONDARY COLORS Green, orange and purple These are the colors formed by mixing the primary colors.

3 TERTIARY COLORS Yellow-orange, red-orange, red-purple,
blue-purple, blue-green and yellow-green. These are the colors formed by mixing a primary and a secondary color. That's why the hue is a two word name, such as blue-green, red-violet, and yellow-orange.
