Another restart - I keep getting lost in red & yellow

[Atlantis]

I've been working on this one way to long, starting over and over again, getting lost in red & yellow stains, doing some others alongside hoping to get inspired for this one. ..
I know I need to repair the green and blue channels as much as possible and add coloured layers to bring back the colour but the plaid couch and the woodpanels on the wall are so hard to repair.  I keep returning to this one, restarting and getting stuck at the same point over and over.
I guess I need some magic words now  ;)

I'm confused.
Here's PhillipsN_66 I restored and sent to Tess July 9.
What am I missing here?

I don't know, I guess Tess set me free and I somehow missed her taking the spell away.
No problem, the main goal is achieved : the photo is on it's way home!
I will look more carefully what to ask for next.
Thank you for taking the burden of my shoulder.

I'm beginning to think my emails are going missing Atlantis. I emailed you in May and June about this photo but never got a reply. Being the last photo from this family it needed to go home so I reassigned it as I hadn't heard from you in months.
