By combining an equal amount of any two of the three pure primary paint colors, you form a secondary color, which includes orange, green, and purple. When you look at the color wheel you will notice that the secondary colors are found between the primary colors of red, blue, and yellow. Traditionally on the color wheel yellow together with red create orange, blue combined with red creates purple, and yellow and blue make green. However, for the visible light colors, magenta, cyan, and yellow, are known as the secondary colors.
