It's funny when almost everyone in the world had painted in their life, but had not wondered what the paint was made out of. Well, the earliest pigments were from the Earth and mostly just mud and dirt, but as time went on, people began to create pigments synthetically. Pigments in paint are just like a Jell-O molds. The pigments are the things trapped inside the Jell-O, which in this case is the solvent, usually, oil or water.
To learn more about pigments, visit http://webexhibits.org/pigments/, the website has a lot of information about the history of the pigments and very detailed descriptions about certain pigments and colors.
