Camellia and Chrysanthemum Flower Screen Prints

My latest Screenprints are of a pretty Camellia and Chrysanthemum flowers in full bloom, in the style of vintage botanical drawings. I used a bright crimson ink for the petals which contrasts with two shades of green for the stem and leaves, and a delicate grey for the darker areas. I found the original drawings in a children's annual, and had quite a job to create the colour separations for the actual screen prints. I am used to drawing and tracing things using vectors in Illustrator, but for these I had to remind myself how to use Photoshop to separate out the right bits but I got there in the end!
I hope you like the results.
