The video shows a person's hands as they paint a gradient on a piece of paper. The gradient starts with a bright red color at the top, then transitions into a warm orange, and finally ends with a soft yellow at the bottom. The person uses a brush to blend the colors together smoothly. The paper is placed on a white surface, and there is a palette of watercolors visible on the side. The person's hands are steady as they apply the paint, and the gradient is even and well-blended.
