Actually, when playing around with the color picker in GIMP at one point, I actually noticed that there are really only 2 colors: warm and cold.
And everything else is just a shade of either of the 2.
For example, red, yellow, orange, brown, and pink are all warm colors, whereas blue, green, cyan, lime, and purple are all cold colors.
In an RGB setting, the higher the red value compared to green and blue, the warmer the color, but the higher the green and/or blue value compared to red, the colder the color.
Black, grey, and white are basically shades of light rather than shades of color.
