Dark colours make us feel calm or sad.The primary colours are red, yellow, and blue. They are the colours that can be mixed together to make different colours. Mixing two primary colours makes a secondary colour. The secondary colours are orange, green, and violet. Orange is made by mixing yellow and red. Green is made by mixing yellow and blue. Violet is made by mixing red and blue. Intermediate colours can be made by mixing two primary colours and a secondary colour together. Some intermediate colours are blue violet and red orange. Black, white, and gray are special colours. They are called neutral colours.
