October is a month of fun and scares, as we celebrate the autumn season and one of the spookiest events of the year; Halloween. What better colour can be used to represent October than ochre?
Ochre or ocher is a natural clay earth pigment which is a mixture of ferric oxide and varying amounts of clay and sand. The colour ochre appears in a variety of shades; from yellow to deep orange or brown. It is said to symbolise rebirth.
