CMY Color Model Diagram | Understanding Subtractive Color Mixing #3407454 (License: Personal Use)

The image displays a classic subtractive color model using three overlapping circles: cyan, magenta, and yellow-the primary colors used in printing (CMYK). Where two circles intersect, secondary colors emerge: red (magenta + yellow), green (cyan + yellow), and blue (cyan + magenta); the central overlap of all three yields a dark neutral (ideally black). This diagram is foundational for understanding how pigments and inks combine to create full-color prints.

Commonly used in graphic design, print media, and educational resources to illustrate subtractive color theory. It supports user intent around learning color fundamentals, preparing print files, or comparing additive (RGB) vs. subtractive (CMYK) models.
