This is my magnificent color wheel.
Define:
Analogous: Analogous colors are groups of colors that are adjacent to each other on the color wheel
Complementary: colors directly opposite each other in the color spectrum, such as red and green or blue and orange, that when combined in the right proportions, produce white light.
Color triads: These are any three colors that are equidistant on the color wheel. When triad colors are used in a color scheme, they present a tension to the viewer, because all three colors contrast.
Split Complementary Colors: The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme. In addition to the base color, it uses the two colorsadjacent to its complement.
