Additive Color Mixing

Additive color mixing is the process of creating colors by combining different light sources. The primary colors of light are red, green, and blue (RGB). When these colors are mixed together in varying intensities, they produce a wide range of hues. For example, combining red and green light creates yellow, while red and blue create magenta. When all three primary colors are mixed at full intensity, they produce white light. This method is commonly used in digital screens and stage lighting, where colors are created by shining lights rather than mixing paints or pigments.
