By using colors that contain a lot of white you will not highlight but instead desaturate the color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To add shadow, avoid black, since it is the same situation. If you add black you&#8217;ll desaturate the color. For shading you&#8217;ll use the opposite color (see color wheel) to the color you are using. For example if you want to shade a red color you can use green or turquoise. By doing this you&#8217;ll manage to darken the color without losing its vividness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Primary, secondary and tertiary colors There are 3 primary colors: yellow, blue and red.
