Or is it purple and yellow are opposites in pigment, with blue and orange being
complimentary... anyways, the point being that pigments and light rays
behave differently Here is a pigment colour wheel:
Compare to the light spectrum colour wheel:
Red opposite Cyan, Magenta opposite Green, Blue opposite Yellow.
Some showed black in the center, but that would be incorrect, since
black is the absence of light, whereas white is all colours combined

And pink is actually a tint of red. (that's a fancy way of saying it's a mix of red and white).
Tints are when colors are mixed with white, and shades are when they are mixed with black. (I didn't make this up, I promise! )
Don't even get me started on secondary's and tertiary's...
