Color pigments are transparent, semi-transparent, or opaque. Opaque paint will cover up another color. Transparent barely shows on top of another color. Semi-transparent is in between. When an artist wants light an airy, they may use transparent paint. To make an object look solid more opaque paint may be used. Paint isn’t divided up so simply into these categories, but this gives you an idea of the range.
