What is how to make purple?

To make purple, you generally need to combine red and blue. The specific shade of purple you achieve will depend on the ratio of red to blue.

• More red will create a warmer, more reddish-purple or magenta.
• More blue will result in a cooler, more bluish-purple or violet.

You can also adjust the value (lightness or darkness) of the purple by adding white (to lighten) or black (to darken). Adding gray will dull the purple, making it less vibrant.
