Mixing background colors

I tried mixing background colors using the background-color property and separating the individual colors with a comma and that didn't work? Is this even feasible? Mind you, I'm not attempting to establish a gradient. I'm literally trying to mix colors into a single color like if I were mixing two colors of paint together.
