As an artist, I know alot about the color wheel and the creation of color based off of other colors and light itself.

The color wheel doesn't describe physical colors. It describes how humans perceive colors.
Without human beings the wheel wouldn't make any sense.
You develop a metaphysical reasoning.
When their is a human who perceives color, you conclude that color exist.
When humans would lose their eyesight the colorwheel make no sense. Both ends of a rainbow don't meet each other.
Red has a wavelenght between 625 and 740 nm. Violet has between 420 and 380 nm. Those colors aren't next to each other by any physical standart.
It is only that the part of our eye that detects red gets also activted a bit from Violet light.
The colorwheel is a human construct.
If all humans would lose their eyesight, speaking of it wouldn't make any sense anymore, because it is only real because of humans.
If people would stop their believe in what the believed in that idea is dead.
If people would stop believing in God, the idea or concept of God is dead.
When you say: "God is dead" you mean therefore that the concept of God is dead.
Like saying communismn is dead. You don't acknowledge that communismn was right 50 years ago. You simply conclude that the idea of communismn is dead.

If we believe in God, he still exists, or we'd be gone. If you don't believe in God, then he never existed. Long story short, it's impossible for God to have created, and then be gone, at any time. I believe in God, therefor, I believe we are created through him.

You conclude on your own misunderstanding of the claim that it is wrong.
The claim that God it dead doesn't

I would ask, A.L., how is belief irrelevant considering that over a billion of the world's population would identify themselves as Christian and billions more Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, etc?

A large number of Hindu's and Buddhists don't believe in a God. The fact that you think that religions that have no God are practially the same as those who have a God rather proofs that the belief in God is irrelevant to religion.
When God is even irrelevant to religion it is also irrelevant society at large.
