The activity deals with mixing primary colors of paint (subtractive mixing). In case of paints the inks absorb different colors of light falling on it, subtracting it from what you see. The more ink you add, the more light is absorbed, and the darker the combined color gets. We can mix just three primary colors to make many new colors. The primary colors for paint/ink are Cyan (a special shade of blue), Magenta (a special shade of pink), and Yellow.
Dèiligidh an cleas seo le measgadh prìomh dhathan peant (measgadh toirt air falbh). Ma tha peant agad, sùighidh na h-incean dathan solais eadar-dhealaichte a thuiteas orra, gan toirt air falbh o na chì thu. Mar as motha an inc a chuireas tu ris, ’s ann as motha de sholas a thèid a shùigheadh is ’s ann as duirche a dh’fhàsas an dath co-mheasgaichte. Chan eil ach na trì prìomh-dhathan a dhìth oirnn gus a h-uile seòrsa de dhath ùr a dhèanamh. Seo na prìomh-dhathan airson peint/ince: saidhean (gorm sònraichte), magenta (bàn-dhearg sònraichte) is buidhe.
