  • Answer:

    Azure is a blue tint. Different people would mean different things by it; I'd use cerulean blue + white. Could be cobalt or ultramarine. Eel? Not sure what that is. Lime is a green. Can be mixed from a blue and a yellow (best to use a cool yellow e.g. lemon). It is usually a full-strength colour = not a tint, tone, or shade. Nile is usually a dirty green tone or shade. Use any blue + yellow, + black (for a shade) or black and white (for a tone). Pearl would presumably be a tone, but I'm not sure what colour you mean exactly. 99% white. Some yellow, red and black? Plum is a purple. Can be mixed from a red and a blue. It could be a shade (or a tone or even a tint). If tone or shade, you might be able to use any red and any blue, + black (and white for a tone) if necessary. For a tint or a pure, intense colour you'd need a purplish blue (e.g. ultramarine) and a purplish red (e.g. alizarin), + white (for a tint). Puce would be roughly the same as plum but in different proportions. Rust usually means a dull, rather orange, red (though real rust varies). Usually a shade (possibly a tone but not a tint). Any red + a little yellow + tiny bit of black (+ white for a tone). NB Tint, tone and shade are not scientifically defined terms and may be used in different ways. I've assumed you mean a full-intensity colour plus: white = tint; grey = tone; black = shade. I have taught colour theory professionally.
