  • Yellow (primary), yellow-green (tertiary) and yellow-orange (tertiary).
  • Green (secondary), blue-green (tertiary) and yellow-green (tertiary).
  • Orange (secondary), yellow-orange (tertiary) and red-orange (tertiary).
  • Violet (secondary), red-purplish (tertiary) and blue-purplish (tertiary).
