his image is a digital painting tutorial demonstrating how to paint light using natural light as an example.  it uses a macaw as the subject. the tutorial is broken down into three steps: identifying base colors using an eyedropper tool (a), pushing the base colors towards a brighter value (b), and painting with the new, brighter light colors to create depth and follow the form and texture of the subject (c).  the tutorial includes color swatches to illustrate the color shifts and uses a "hue cube" diagram to show the relationship between base and light colors within a specific hue (red, in this case).  the artist's instagram handle is included at the bottom.
