RYB is a
historical set of subtractive primary
colors. It is primarily used in art and art education, particularly painting. It
predates modern scientific color theory and does not correspond to the peak
responsivities of the trichromat cone cells.
Standard RYB Color Wheel
RYB also makes up the primary color triad in a standard color wheel. The secondary colors VOG also make up another triad. Triads are formed by 3 equidistant colors on a particular color wheel. Other common color wheels include the light model and the print model. A color
code is a system for displaying information by using different colors. Color codes
are often difficult or impossible for color
blind and blind people to understand.
