Black is the absence of color.

[2Papa]

Black is not a color, it is the lack of color.

[Walter1951]

Black not a color?  But you can buy it in a art store or hardware store.

Black is all colors. White is the absence of color, technically.

[mh8374]

Actually, black is all colors together.  White is the absence of color.

Black is not a color, it is the lack of color.

Try telling that to a painter.
