Color choices

Joshua trees can begin with warm brown trunks and olive or sage leaves. Color the distant hills in dusty purple and muted blue, then combine sandy beige with rust tones across the ground, rocks, and shrubs. Finish with a pale yellow crescent moon and stars, using a deep navy sky for strong contrast.

Star Color Pattern

Use a repeating color pattern across the stars, then echo those shades in the desert plants. Give the crescent moon a contrasting shade so it stands apart from the sky.
