yellow ochre?

Haitham

Hello, im planning a new portrait of my grandfather and i want to creat a similar mood as this master's portrait and the color of his suit just blown my mind up. 
Can i mix it with the limited palette (burnt umber+cad. Yellow+ultramarine blue)??

Am i going on the right track?
Thanks in advance!

Its yellow ochre mixed with more black. You may also need to add white in bits and parts.

Nice portrait. are you going to copy it exactly? you could change the colors to suit your own tastes.

@BOB73  i only wanted to copy the suit's color and the background, the portrait im planning to do is completely different .
