yellow ochre
Warm brownish gold
Yellow ochre is an earthy pigment ranging from mustard to golden brown, made from clay containing iron oxide.
One of the oldest pigments in human history, it appears in prehistoric cave paintings and remains common in artists' palettes today.
The color extends to anything matching this warm, muted yellow-brown: yellow ochre walls, a yellow ochre sunset.
Also spelled yellow ocher.
