If the colour white is made from EVERY colour except black then.?
Question:WHY when you try and mix it does it turn GREY?
Answers:
When talking about paint, white is NOT every color combined. White only contains every color of the rainbow when you are talking about light.. as for photographers. That is why you get a rainbow in the sun, usually after a rainfall.
When talking about paint, white is the TOTAL ABSENCE of all color. That is why it goes with any color and can be mixed with any color... and it won't change the color, just the shade of the color.
Black, on the other hand, is the mixture of all colors. That is also why black goes with any color. Adding black to a color is how we darken a color shade...
That is so true!
I'm a painter and that never crossed my mind, brilliant!
Becaue white isnt every colour except black. White reflects every colour and black absorbs every colour.
isnt it only white light created from all colours and not paint pigment. white pigment and black mixed would make grey. if you mixed chalk and soot youd get grey.
Black and white are not colours, it is only what our eyes perceive..

WHen you mix the the colors of LIGHT you get white. Hence, when you shine light through a prism you get the rainbow. If you mix the primary PIGMENTS you get black.
White light is made from every colour.
There are two separate colour wheels for light and paint. When you mix all the colours of paint together you get black, well at least you are supposed to. usually its just a disgusting dark grey/brown mess
what color or colors are you mixing with white that ends up giving you a "grey" result? i'm a little confused by your question
white is made from titanium oxide
