Cyan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
This article is about the color. For other senses of this word see cyan (disambiguation).
Cyan (from Greek κυανός, meaning "blue") may be used as the name of any of a number of a range of colors in the blue/green part of the spectrum. In reference to the visible spectrum cyan is used to refer to the color obtained by mixing equal amounts of green and blue light or the removal of red from white light. As such, cyan is the complement of red: cyan pigments absorb red light.

Cyan is also called aqua and blue-green. The name "cyan" for printer's cyan has been in use since 1889. [1]

Some shades of color close to cyan in the cyan color range are baby blue, turquoise, and light blue.

cyan is usually referred to as a colour of light - being a mix of blue & green light (ie not paint pigments). Likewise a mix of blue and red light is referred to as magenta and not purple.

The 3 primary colours of light are blue, green & red, as opposed to the primary colours of (say, paint0 as being red, yellow & blue.

This could be why audreybonnar has not heard of it?
