In painting colour theory a hue refers to a pure color—one without tint or shade (added white or black pigment, respectively). A hue is an element of the colour wheel.

Value
When we describe a color as "light" or "dark", we are discussing its value or "brightness". This property of color tells us how light or dark a color is based on how close it is to white.
Chroma
Chroma is the purity of a color. High chroma colors look rich and full. Low chroma colors look dull and grayish. Sometimes chroma is called saturation
