Do people even learn tertiary colors as part of their normal education? I never did...I learned a few on my own, but I can honestly say that I've never seen anything that would make me say, "Wow, that thing is very puce" (or beige, another color I would never be able to ID). Take the color Bole for example (a reddish-brown color). When would you ever describe something as bole-colored? How many people do you know that would actually know what bole is?

Color is so subjective, names are so imprecise, beyond the eight colors of the basic Crayola box*, you might as well use RGB designations.
*red, yellow, blue, green, orange, brown, violet (purple), and black.

@akronnick But what of Burnt Sienna?
akronnick:
Not only reading it, but making shitty film adaptaions of it.
And as to Burnt Sienna...
What brand?
How burnt?
Where was it found?
And they all can be fairly called "brown."
To be specific, you have to specify! :wink:
