A color wheel is typically created by arranging colors in a circular pattern according to their chromatic relationships. To make one, start with the primary colors: red, blue, and yellow. Place these at the center of the wheel. Secondary colors, which are mixtures of two primary colors, are placed between primary colors: orange (red+yellow), green (blue+yellow), and purple (red+blue). Tertiary colors are located between primary and secondary colors, created by mixing a primary color with a secondary color. Add them in a triangular pattern. Finally, add the neutral colors (black, white, and gray) around the edge. Each section of the color wheel represents a specific hue, and the relationships between them can be used to understand color theory and mixing.
