RYB color model
RYB is a historical set of subtractive primary colors. As of 2004, scientists know that this set is incorrect, but it continues to be in common use in art. In it, green is a mixture of blue and yellow, yellow is the complement of violet and orange is the complement of blue. Today, scientists know the true set is CMY, which uses cyan as opposed to blue and magenta as opposed to red.
Color Wheel
RYB also makes up the primary color triad in a standard color wheel. The secondary colors VOY also make up another triad. Triads are formed by 3 equidistant colors on a particular color wheel. Other common color wheels include the light model and the print model.
