one color.

2. Complementary Colors:Colors opposite each other on the color wheel.

3. Triadic Colors: Any 3 colors equidistant on the color wheel (if you can make a equilateral triangle in the color wheel, then those three colors are triadic) Example: Red, yellow and blue

4. Analogous Colors:3-5 Colors that are side by side on the color wheel and share a hue.
