Which 2 colours when mixed together make brown?

Question

My daughter is painting and needs to make a brown.

Answer 1

Complimentary colors are opposite each other on the color wheel. When mixed together they make brown. Essentially the 3 primary colors are red, yellow, blue. 2 primary colors mixed together make a secondary color. These are red+yellow=orange, blue+yellow=green, red+blue=violet. On a color wheel, find a color and look exactly opposite that color and that will be the compliment. Example blue is opposite orange.

The short answer is: Mixing blue and orange makes a great brown. Mix red and green and get a grey brown. Mix violet and yellow and it makes lighter brown. For a really warm brown i mix orange and violet. You have to experiment a little using different amounts until you get the color you want.
