EXAMPLE: ART102E - Media Arts & Animation : Additive Color Mixing

Additive Color Mixing


FORM: 
 
 This picture was created by an artist using drawing software on a computer, therefore the picture contains Additive Color Mixing. The picture uses Additive Color Mixing because the photo was created entirely on a computer and computers mix light to create colors/images. When Additive Color Mixing happens, the artist can then select different shades/colors of 'ink'/ mixed light to paint their picture.

EXAMPLE: ART102E - Apparel Design - Subtractive Mixing

Form: The cover photo for Vogue is printed using subtractive mixing, more specifically a CMYK color model. Cyan, magenta, yellow, and key black inks are printed in layers on white paper in order to create the desired colors for the photograph and words. For example, "VOGUE" is seen as red, which is caused by the subtractive color mixing process of layering magenta and yellow ink.
