No, brown, if you are talking about paint. Any pair of complementary colours
in paint produce a brown with a particular bias depending upon the primary
employed. Black is not a colour but an extreme of tone.

Alan, could you extend the generalization above to include any two
'complentary" primaries to inks? For instance, a PANTONE 185 which is red in
appearance and a PANTONE 347 which is green in appearance. Could you say
that mixing these two inks will yield a brown?
