Ochre Color

Ochre color, or "ochre" refers to a group of natural earth pigments containing hydrated iron oxide. Since the commercial development of ochre pigment in the 19th century it has been used by artists, initially to create their own colors in place of rare and expensive natural equivalents, but subsequently to produce brighter colors. 

As well, ochre in its raw form has long been used by potters and other artists across cultures for their clay bodies.

There are some distinct advantages to painting with ochre. One set of people who painted with ochre were the indigenous people of the Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa. 

They collected pigment from surface deposits of iron or ferric oxides, then ground it and mixed it with a plant gum for binding.

A couple of years ago, Gina Laurie's Living Color book on how to work color into your wardrobe was one of my 'go-to' go-to references for making the most of what I already owned and shopping for new items to expand my colorspace. 

Because ochre wasn't a word we were using in our personal or professional wardrobes at the time (we tend to be trendsetters).
