Was trying to explain to my eldest why actually cyan, magenta and yellow are the real primary colours, and why red, blue and yellow are not and... Well, it still blows my own mind.

I get very confused between light/cone colours of red, green and blue being also primaries, which mix together to make C, M and Y, and then if you take the latter three colours as pigments you can mix most anything from them, and just 🤯

I'm still surprised that magenta and a little yellow makes red.
