Traditional Painting (RYB)
RYB uses pigments, similar to CMY, which combine subtractively by absorbing light. Thus, combining colors using the RYB system will result in a darker color. The composition is red + yellow = orange, yellow + blue = green, and blue + red = purple.

Famous quotes containing the words traditional and/or painting:
“The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making processa process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were madeconstructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudesbut photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
—Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
“Unlike any other visual image, a photograph is not a rendering, an imitation or an interpretation of its subject, but actually a trace of it. No painting or drawing, however naturalist, belongs to its subject in the way that a photograph does.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
