Color Theory[edit | edit source]
In the context of subtractive color mixing, spring green can be created by mixing yellow and cyan pigments. This is because subtractive color mixing involves the absorption and reflection of light, which is different from the additive mixing used in digital displays.
Spring green is also part of the opponent process theory of color vision, which suggests that colors are perceived in terms of opposing pairs. In this model, green is opposed to red, and blue is opposed to yellow.
