'Brown'

Color Theory Tip: 'Brown' is not a color. To get a 'brown' you simply take any Primary or Secondary color and mix in it's complimentary color (like mixing Orange and Blue) which will desaturate it, making it look grayer...then add white or black as needed for value...thus, 'Brown' can be made of ANY colors. When you think of brown, what things come to mind? Dirt, Bears, hair, fur, etc...all of those come in a version of 'brown' but none are necessarily the same color. Dirt, literally comes in all colors, depending on the contents of the dirt, yet we always think of it as 'brown'.
