RGB COLOR WHEEL INTENDED TO CREATE COLOR HARMONY COMPOSITIONS IN MODERN ART AND DESIGN

The existing RYB color wheel widely used to create harmonic color compositions is not applicable in modern digital art and design. The reason is that colors formed by light, “additive colors”, and those formed by pigments, “subtractive colors” did in fact operate by different rules, and had different primary and complementary colors. So new color wheel is proposed - “RGB color wheel” suitable .to work with colors in digital environment.
The RGB color wheel is based on the primary colors R, G, B, defined by sRGB color space, create by additive mixing 3 secondary and 6 tertiary harmonic colors with which many different types of harmonic color compositions can be realized.
An analogue RGB color wheel is proposed with pastel colors suitable for print.
New definitions for Hue, Saturation and Lightness color-making attributes are formulated which correspond to the contemporary high level of computer technologies.
There are some recommendations how the new RGB color wheel can be used with the HSB model to create attractive and pleasant images with color harmony in digital design.
