A boy kneels on the left of the page, turned in profile to face a clay diya that stands on a plain straight ledge to his right. His near hand is open and stretched toward the lamp, fingers apart, caught at the moment before he touches it. The lamp itself is small but fully drawn: a shallow saucer on a foot, with one teardrop flame standing on its lip. His hair is the detail worth pointing out. It is drawn as one smooth open shape with a clean outline and nothing filled in, so it prints as something to color rather than as a solid black mass, which is what usually happens to dark hair on a coloring sheet. His clothes are equally plain, a short sleeved kurta over loose trousers with a simple hem line at the waist. He is barefoot, as you would be indoors. The ledge is two straight lines and the paper below it is completely empty, so the figure and the lamp carry the whole page between them. Try coloring the flame first and everything else in cooler shades.
