It can get complicated, but in summary, color theory is how we perceive colors (light wavelengths), which colors may look better to use than others, and the different color groups.
[] For example, the primary colors are red, blue, and yellow. All colors can be created combining these colors with different shades
[] Secondary colors include those of purple, orange, and green. The colors directly resulted from mixing two primary colors.
[] Last of the main color groups is Tertiary colors, colors from mixing secondary and primary such as teal (green + blue).
