Question

How come Black is a color in art and not in general?

Answer 1

Answer: Heyaa!!  ( Have an amazing day <3 )

"Pure black can exist in nature without any light at all. Some consider white to be a color, because white light comprises all hues on the visible light spectrum. And many do consider black to be a color, because you combine other pigments to create it on paper."

Explanation:

In physics and on the light spectrum, black is the absence of color. However, in art, black is the presence of all colors. In printing, black is one of the colors needed to produce other colors.

Hopefully this helps you !

Answer 2

In science, black is the absence of light. And color is a phenomenon of light. But a black object or black images printed on white paper are made from pigment, not light. So artists must use their darkest color of paint to approximate black.

True black and true white are rare.

What you see as a pigment with a black color or a light with a white color actually contains various light or dark colors. Nothing can be pure white or pure black, except unfiltered sunlight or the depths of a black hole.

Cyan, magenta, yellow and black color ink bursts.
