Congrats Tracy!<\/p>\n<p>BTC is an exciting new hands-on system for exploring color. Tracy&#8217;s Color Cards + Color Cubes are beautifully designed and super fun to use. The front of each card is printed in full color and the back shows a simple Cyan, Magenta + Yellow (CMY) formula. The numbering system might look a bit confusing at first but it&#8217;s amazingly easy to understand once you get the hang of it.<\/p>\n<p>CMY are universally recognized as the primaries for printing but they are also the basic building blocks of modern color for painters. Understanding the subtractive primaries of CMY and their relationship to the additive primaries of light, Red, Green + Blue (RGB) is the key to unlocking the door to 21<sup>st<\/sup> century color.\u00a0BreakThroughColor swings that door wide open!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/maggiemaggio.com\/color\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/AOL_Mail__4484_.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6509 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/maggiemaggio.com\/color\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/AOL_Mail__4484_-300x164.jpg\" alt=\"BTCinMalta\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maggiemaggio.com\/color\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/AOL_Mail__4484_-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maggiemaggio.com\/color\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/AOL_Mail__4484_.jpg 397w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve watched and waited as Tracy developed the prototypes for her system over the last three years.
