Instead of using photos I've taken as a visual prompt, I wanted to create flower motifs from my imagination. Inspired by the array of beautiful flowers I remember seeing on a holiday my friends and I took to Lake Como in Italy, I drew these vector motifs.

I remember how the warm grey stone buildings made a delightful backdrop to the colourful flower displays that adorned most streets. So I made this my pattern background colour.

I love playing around with changing up the colour ways. Saving my colour pallet and then using Recolour Artwork function in Illustrator to experiment. Here are my favourites.
