We first intended to convert the RGB colour we see on our computers to the CMYK colour scheme that printers use. We intended to match the HEX code directly to CMYK values and bought ourselves cyan, magenta, yellow and black paint. However, we then realised that the printer ink is quite different from paint colours, and the paint colours will not mix well if we use CMYK. Therefore, to make our paint colours more accurate, we have decided to convert RGB values to RYB values instead. For that, we found a research paper on colour compositing that could aid us (Sugita J., & Takahashi T. ,2014).
