what natural substance is used to make the primary paint colours?

Answer 1

It depends which pigments and what paints. If you check the manufacturers web sites some of them tell you which chemicals they use to manufacture the paints, some tubes have it written directly on them.
Primary colors are yellow, red and blue. In oil paints for example you have many varieties of this colors. In just yellow you have Cadmium yellow light, cadmium yellow medium, cadmium yellow pale, sunny yellow, yellow ocher and many more, the same with blues and reds. Mostly each of those colors is made from different chemicals. So to give you each of them would be a difficult task, that is why I pointed you to manufacturers websites.
If you just want to make your own, use natural products like dirt, leaves, berries, and other things you can find that will give you an appropriate color.

Answer 2

Not just the primary colors, most of the colors are made by mixing minerals found in the earth. Synthetics are also used to create the pigments for paint.

Answer 3

Made from natural/renewable ingredients. Three German companies sell paints in America made from natural ingredients. Their common philosophy is to use ingredients produced from nature which nature can replenish and will return to nature, and are safe for the user's health. Two of the brands contain nontoxic petrochemical solvents, and the third uses a renewable balsam terpene solvent that is considered in Europe to be of questionable safety. Despite any small amount of VOCs these paints may emit, these products are much more sustainable than those made from petroleum products.
