Quote
"Most artist have been taught that red, blue, and yellow are the primary colors - hues that cannot be created from any combination of other colors. However, as a result of years of study, author and arist Jim Ames has concluded that the true primay colors are cyan (a greenish blue), magenta (a violet red), and a yellow that does not lean toward either cyan or magenta."
