You haven't left enough time, nor really do you have the right colours... but that's life huh? I'd mix t white, a little c red, yellow o and raw umber, a little at a time until you have roughly the hue you want. Then on the pallet, using this colour as a base use more white, blue, b sienna and your two yellows for highlights and shadows.


Try not to use the black, it'll look very dead in a portrait, instead for very dark areas mix b sienna and f ultramarine to make a dark, dark brown.


be careful with the alizarin crimson, as this has a very high tint ans can dominate the other colours you are using.How To Paint Indian Skin Tones With Oil Paint...?
