Morocco - Desert 🌴✨ (October references, week 41) (Patreon)

Good afternoon!! 🤗

It's the second week of drawing Morocco this month! Every week, another theme, and this week's theme will be... The Moroccan Desert! 🌵

Reference images 🌴

Morocco's nature looks stunning with its palm trees, oasis, and lots of sand! I couldn't choose between these four references, so I included them all! This week's references are:

Oasis

Cosy area

Brick buildings in the desert

City wall: Ouarzazat

Final illustrations week 40

I really loved the colour palette of last week's references! 🥰 Lots of green and terracotta! I am still working on adding more detail to the buildings, so I kept it simple this time. I also used a limited colour palette, with only 4 different base colours and 4 different pencil colours.

These are the base brush pen colours I used for all references:

Tombow 912 (Pale Cherry)

Tombow 126 (Light olive)

Tombow 553 (Mist purple)

Ecoline 374 (Pink Beige)

For the pencils I used:

Faber-Castell 157 (Dark Indigo)

Faber-Castell 165 (Juniper Green)

Faber-Castell 188 (Sanguine)

Stabilo aquacolor 630 (Dark Brown)
