from mixing the primary and secondary colors. The center of the color hexagon represents all

The color will be characterized by its hue and saturation:
Hue specifies the kind of coloration, for example, whether the color is red, yellow, orange etc.
Saturation expresses the colorfulness of a color. At maximum saturation, no shade of gray is
present. At minimum saturation, no "color" but only some shade of gray (including black and
white) is present.
