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 traditional disputes of philosophers are, for the most part, as unwarranted as they are unfruitful.”
—A.J. (Alfred Jules)
“The peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.”
—Sir Herbert Read (18931968)
