Why do colors mix and not stay separate?

Hello! Just wondering why when I mix red and white it creates pink, instead of being red and white swirls? Same with if you mix a bunch of colors together it turns brown instead of seeing all the colors you mixed individually? Thank you!

It’s mostly the way pigment works. But if you try to mix colors by spinning colors on as wheel it will create a completely different color than the color you would get when mixing pigment, because light mixes differently than pigment.
