first of all: English is not my language. Sorry for any mistakes.

So. I take photos and work on them amateurishly. It's a hobby. Usually B&W or full of dark shadows and a single direct light source. But I also take others in order to draw on the photos.

Sooooo....
the help I need from you is precisely to facilitate my digital painting process. I want to work on the photo in Lightroom and make it a shade of color, and I can't get that result. At the end of the text, I'm going to post a photo (THAT ISN'T MINE) that is exactly the tone I need.

The only thing I already have an idea of is what I need to do:
SHADOW +100 (or close to it)
LIGHT - 100 (or close to it)

I want this old paint tone. Kind of a pastel color (?). I can't explain it properly. The photo isn't just shadowless and lightless. There's a color change in it. And I want to achieve that in the photos I edit in Lightroom. It would make it MUCH easier to find the right tone to paint the scenery and objects in the photo.
