Artwork reminiscent of Morocco is growing in popularity and brings a sense of desert charm to the world of surface design. Explore this trend by getting inspired by intricate Moroccan tile, lush palm trees, and desert animals like camels!
One of my students in The Art of Collections, Aby of
Aby Creative Journey, decided to tap into this trend for her next collection. She was inspired by a recent trip she took to Tunisia which has a similar vibe to the Moroccan aesthetic.
She did a great job of capturing behind-the-scenes footage of her drawing on location while nestled amongst her inspiration!
Pro tip: Clients love when collections have a story behind them. Capturing behind the scenes moments of your inspiration can give your artwork a leg up when it comes to potential collaborations.
Recently, I've had more and more of my licensing partners request to feature not just my work, but me as an artist! This has given me a great opportunity to share the inspiration behind my artwork so that customers can connect more with the product and the story. In this new world of AI, it feels great to see that brands will always value human creativity and storytelling!
