I guess the opposing shade of it down the spectrum? :/ 80% vs. 20% ?

But what if it's 50%?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

50% grey is too badass to have an opposite because no color in their right mind would oppose it.

Complimentary colors, when mixed together, form 50% gray. That means that black and white form 50% gray, and 75% and 25% form 50%. the only color that has no opposite is 50% gray because its opposite would be itself.

opposite of grey is "not grey".It is cause apart from black and white, which other colour/color has an opposite?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

color wheel, opp of red is green, orange is blue, yellow is purple

There isn't an opposite. Take -1 as black and 1 as white, for example. Grey would be 0. The opposite of -1 is 1, and the opposite of 1 is -1, and the opposite of 0 is still 0.

finally, some logic!

but the other colors do not have opposites and they come between black and white

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yes, they do. The cold tones are -1 to 0 and the warm 0 to 1. Green is the opposite of red, orange the opposite of blue, and yellow the opposite of purple.

Well, considering grey is the mix of black and white, which depending on what you consider to be colours, are "the absence of colour". And, if you think black, grey and white are the lack of colour, then colours (blue, green, red, yellow, etc., etc.) would be the opposite. All colours mixed together would make a shade of brown Therefore: Therefore the opposite of the absence of colours mixed together (black and white to make grey) would be all the colours mixed together, to make brown.

Well actually, doctor, you got one thing wrong... Black is the absence of color and white is the presence of all color

Really? Wouldn't that be in regards to light - black is the absence of light, and white is all light? Colour in the conventional sense - I'm thinking physical paints rather than computer colours - wouldn't add up to white.

Color can't exist without light. The surface of any object reflect some light and absorbs what it doesn't reflect, so it doesn't matter if you are talking about paint or computer colors; color is color.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, but black would be the absence of light, white the presence of all light. Compared to colour, which I thought black and white were both the lack of colour.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Well, absence and presence of the light waves that create color
