{"product_id":"ohio-ochre-pigment","title":"Ohio Ochre Pigment","description":"\u003cp\u003eDescription\u003cbr\u003eOhio Ochre is a single earth pigment made from natural brown red ochre clay mined in Ohio. Its color comes from a natural mix of the iron oxides hematite and goethite, which gives it a warm brown red hue with a soft, earthy masstone. Like other ochres, it is stable, versatile, and pleasant to handle, with good covering power and a gentle, natural warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn use, Ohio Ochre gives warm brown reds for landscape, portrait and decorative painting, from earth, brick and stone to warm shadows and skin tones. It mixes with blues for deep, natural neutrals, with yellows for warm, earthy oranges, and with white for soft rose and terracotta tints. It is lightfast, works in every binder and is fully compatible with lime and fresco.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistory\u003cbr\u003eRed and brown ochres are among the oldest pigments, used from prehistoric cave paintings through Egyptian, Greek and Roman art to the present. In the 19th and early 20th centuries the United States developed its own ochre industry, and Ohio was among the states that mined and processed ochre for paint, alongside Pennsylvania, Virginia and Georgia. Ohio Ochre carries that American earth tradition into the artist's palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Information\u003cbr\u003ePigment Type: Natural (Iron Oxide) from minerals (Hematite and Goethite) (USA)\u003cbr\u003eSource: Iron oxide rich clay\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Ohio, U.S.A.\u003cbr\u003eSuitable Mediums: Watercolor, Oil, Tempera, Acrylic, Encaustic, Cold Wax, Casein, Lime \/ Fresco\u003cbr\u003eLightfastness: Excellent\u003cbr\u003eOpacity: Semi-opaque\u003cbr\u003eOther Names: Ohio Red Ochre, American Red Ochre, Brown Red Earth\u003cbr\u003eColor Index Code: PR102\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHealth and Safety\u003cbr\u003eFor art use only.
