Subtractive primary colours. Computer artwork showing the CMYK subtractive primary colours (cyan: C, magenta: M and yellow: Y) overlapping to form other colours, with black (K, centre) when all three are mixed together. By mixing these three colours in varying amounts all other colours can be made. The CMYK standard of subtractive primaries is used mainly when mixing pigment inks in the printing industry.
