black isn't a color, it's a shade. White is a tint. You can't make either.

If you mix all of the colors, you get brown.

Insofar as the physics of black and white are concerned, black is the absence of all color and white is the presence of all colors. However, mixing paint colors together, you will never get black and there is no way to even attempt to get white.

Believe it or not, white, gray and black are the same "color". They share a common property: They reflect or transmit all the wavelengths of visible light equally or at least with the same response as your eyes. It is therefore not possible to mix black as in four colour process printing the laying of blue, yellow & red will be as close as is but black is used to sharpen the image and give depth

There is no such thing as a color called black, it is a shade. There for it's impossible to make it out of anything same as white and gray.

you can only use the primary colors (red, yellow and blue) with other colors to create another one. then add white to make it lighter or black to make it darker. mixing red, yellow and blue with any of the other colors won't give you black therefore it can't be done. just buy black paint.

Black is the absence of color, white is combination of all color.

The answer really depends on what you're trying to make 'black' with. If you're using oil paints you most certainly CAN mix raw umber and cobalt blue OR aliz. crimson and your blue-green to make black.

In pigments, such as paints, inks, etc..it's the presence of all colors, in lighting, it's the absence of all colors.
