Mixing every color using light = white

Mixing every color using pigments (paint, ink, etc.) = black

    Pure black and pure white are the null points in the color spectrum. Everything in between is a gradient. And rainbows are not the default gradient, the shadow behind you is just a dimmer shade of the same color.

      What do you mean? “Rainbows” relate to frequency while shadows correspond to intensity.

        Exactly. Rainbows are a rare phenomenon, shadows are common.

        Edit: I have an entire custom software that I wrote to process this very basic concept.

        My color processing system is neither additive nor subtractive, at least not in the contemporary sense.

        My system adds, subtracts, and adjusts the actual colors, without interfering with the brightness.
