The image to the left shows how the light on the face creates more contrast. Add more color and blend this carefully with a clean brush.

Give color to the background by using burnt umber and black for the dark parts and yellow ochre for the light that flows behind the object. Add some white at some parts around the edge of the object to create more contrast. Blend this into the yellow ochre with a clean blending brush.
