Color Model

A color model is a system that defines how colors are created and represented digitally. It uses specific values for components—like red, green, and blue (RGB)—to produce a wide range of colors. Think of it as a recipe that combines these elements in different amounts to create different hues. Color models are fundamental for screens, printers, and digital images, ensuring consistency and accurate color reproduction across devices. Different models, such as CMYK for printing or RGB for displays, are optimized for their specific mediums, helping us see and work with colors reliably.
