Traditional Painting (RYB)
The primary colors in an RYB color wheel are red, yellow, and blue. The secondary colors in an RYB color wheel are made by combining the primary colors--orange, green, and violet.
In the red–yellow–blue system as used in traditional painting, and interior design, tertiary colors are typically named by combining the names of the adjacent primary and secondary.

Famous quotes containing the words traditional and/or painting:
“If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
“I don’t know but a book in a man’s brain is better off than a book bound in calf—at any rate it is safer from criticism. And taking a book off the brain, is akin to the ticklish & dangerous business of taking an old painting off a panel—you have to scrape off the whole brain in order to get at it with due safety—& even then, the painting may not be worth the trouble.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
