A colour separation is an image that defines where one specific colour will be printed. Colours can be mixed by overlapping areas of different colour separations so that one ink is applied on top of the other. By combining this technique with halftones, many variations of colours are possible.

Colour separations break down a colour graphic into the four basic ink colours: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK). Each single colour layer is then printed separately, one on top of the other, to give an impression of infinite colons.
