What is the differance between additive color and subtractive color?
There is no difference in the colors themselves, the difference is in how they are produced. The following answers come from WhyIsColor: Q: How does additive color mixing work? A: Additive mixing happens when two or more light sources are superimposed by either illuminating the same spot or by being so close together in space and time that oure visual systems cannot distinguish them. What we perceive is the sum of the energy from each of the lights. This is how computer displays and televisions reproduce color. Red, green, and blue are common additive primaries since it is easy and efficient to makea wide variety of colors with them. Q: How does subtractive color mixing work? A: Subtractive mixing happens when two or more dyes or pigments are combined by either layering or mixing them. Each dye or pigment absorbs certain colors (wavelengths) and what we perceive is the light that remains after each colorant has absorbed its part. This is how some printing systems and paint mixtures pro
