An amazing colour that is made by mixing blue and green light equally. It is the colour of shallow tropical water, or glacial ice. Sadly, the dogshit education system does not include this term, so to
99.99% of the population, this colour is simply termed "
blue". Even though it's a vastly different hue. Even trained artists don't know the difference between cyan and
blue, as they insist on using the red-yellow-
blue colour model which is super outdated.
Average person who doesn't know what cyan is: Wow that's a lovely shade of light
blue!
Person who has made the
smart move of incorporating cyan into their vocab: Cyan! It's CYAN!
Average person who doesn't know what cyan is: It's
blue you fucking pedant.
