You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1:
Using the fixed pen, draw the shapes of the palm stem. Draw the first trunk vertically, and the second one leaning to the right. I also drew the grass where the trunk of the tree protrudes from the ground.
Step 2:
For each palm leaf, draw a single line at the location of the palm leaf veins. This helps give us a starting point to define the shape of the leaf.
Step 3:
Using the inner palm ridge as a starting point, trace the shape of the leaves around it. You will see that I am not painting individual leaves on top of the larger leaf, but rather in clusters of leaves to give the impression of a large palm tree leaf.
Step 4:
Finish the palm leaves on the first palm tree, and start drawing the shapes of the palm leaves on the second palm tree.
