SUBTRACTIVE COLOR SYNTHESIS uses paints, dyes, inks, and natural colorants to create color by absorbing some wavelengths of light and reflecting or transmitting others. This subtractive action is the basis of photographic filters, almost all films and color papers, and photomechanical reproduction in color.

An enlightening look at additive and subtractive color and how we perceive light. Understanding rgb and cmyk color models. ... A red apple is a good example of subtractive color; the apple really has no color; it has no light energy of its own, it merely reflects the wavelengths of white light that cause us to see red...

Subtractive Color System ... Two-Color Subtractive Color System ... In order to understand any motion picture color system, be it two-color, three-color, or even the rare four color, we must have a firm understanding of both the additive and subtractive color systems.

Subtractive color processes proved far more practical to exhibit than were additive systems. This is because standard projectors could be used to show the films which had only one composite color record for each frame.

Subtractive Color. When we mix colors using paint, or through the printing process, we are using the subtractive color method. Subtractive color mixing means that one begins with white and ends with black; as one adds color, the result gets darker and tends to black.

I once received an email from an artist and "color theorist" who insisted that the subtractive (CMY) primaries were "the primary colors of the universe." The best antidote to that kind of fuzzy color worship is a historical review of how color theory developed, and why primary colors — imaginary or imperfect —...

Unfortunately, the color mixture "predictions" made by subtractive color theory are often inaccurate, because the light absorbing properties of a colorant are affected by its physical state — its particle size, transparency, density, dispersion or medium, the color of the substrate, the other colorants it is mixed...

If one take two differently colored beams of light and projects them on to a screen, the mixing of these lights occurs according to the principle of additive color mixing. If one mixes two differently colored paints they mix according to the principle of subtractive color mixing.
