What is in the image: the image is a digital art tutorial demonstrating how to color a subject (a scarlet macaw in this instance) without initially considering lighting. the tutorial emphasizes starting with the subject's inherent, flat base colors, staying within a specific color range (shown in a hue cube), before adding light and dark values and vibrant colors in later steps. the tutorial also notes that while linework can be useful for suggesting form, its opacity should gradually be decreased as the painting progresses. the overall style is clean and instructional, utilizing color swatches and arrows to guide the viewer. the artist's handle, @jonhuangart, is visible at the bottom.
