In reply to Gerry Cornish. Hi Gerry, For mixing paints, you may try Ivory Black. Payne's Grey is really a dark cool grey, but also works nicely for darkening colors.

I usually use Titanium white but what black do you recommend? Blacks can be mixtures of different colours. Say for instance – Paynes Grey. Thanks.

I find this very difficult to understand, too much information.

Kinda simplistic presentation of just one out of many color theories. Newton invented this color wheel for light rays – not for paints. Artists use pigments, not light for painting. Pigments are much more complicated atomic light filters than is the monochromatic light assumed for color theories. And of course red or blue can be mixed: just add magenta and cyan to the palette. And finally, color only is a mental experience produced solely by our nervous system and a few types of photo receptors in the eyes. Considering all this, any artist who sticks to a color theory puts a lid on his or her artistic reservoir.
