The primary colors are the three colors that cannot be created by mixing any other colors together; the primary colors are the bases of all colors.

"Red is such an interesting color to correlate with emotion because it's on both ends of the spectrum. On one end, you have happiness, falling in love, and passion...

BLUE

"Blue is the only color which maintains its own character in all tones... It will always stay blue; whereas yellow is blackened in its shades, and fades away when lightened;

....Red when darkened becomes brown, and diluted with white is no longer red, but another color- pink."
- Raoul Dufy.
