You can work on the mask you've already created and just use your brushes to edit the mask.


Here I've masked out the red bordered area from the rest of the image (note I duplicated the image and turned off bottom layer to only show the edited area):

Now using the selection tool you prefer - I used the pen tool - select those three boxes:

With the mask selected, go to Edit > Fill > Black

Click OK and then those boxes will be masked out:

Now you can choose a color fill layer and clip it to the masked layer - I've just popped in a purple:

Finished:

Simpler - just use a selection tool to choose the gray surrounding area and place it on another layer:

Again add a color fill layer above the selected layer, add a color, and clip it to the layer below:

Finished (the red border is still there since I didn't choose it):

If you want to change colors, just change the color in the fill layer...


Hope this helps and I've answered your question.
