As a language specialist with expertise in color theory, I can tell you that black is not created by mixing two colors. Instead, black is the result of the absence of light or the combination of all colors in the visible spectrum. However, in the context of subtractive color mixing, which is used in printing and pigments, black can be approximated by mixing cyan, magenta, and yellow, which are the primary colors of pigment mixing. It's important to note that when these colors are mixed in equal proportions, the result is a dark brown rather than a true black. True black is often added as a separate color in professional printing, known as CMYK where K stands for Key (black).

Black paint can be made with equal parts red, yellow, and blue paint mixed together on a palette. You can also mix complementary colors such as blue and orange, red and green, or yellow and purple. Mixing blue and brown can also result in a rich black.
