The world around us is beautiful and amazing, every moment just begs to be put on canvas... But while you are not yet a venerable artist, but just learning, it is best to start not with a panoramic picture, but, for example, with a flower. A lesson on how to draw a rose will teach you this art step by step.

There are many different ways drawing, which means there are many options for depicting the “cap” of a flower. By the end of the lesson, you will know exactly how to draw a rose with a pencil. Look at the example of a blossoming bud presented here. This is what your final version should look like.

You can start drawing from any point: from the center or from the outer contour. Great value it doesn't have. Draw a pear-shaped object. This will be the main shape from which the charming flower head will gradually “bloom”. Like that:

It's time to gradually start adding petals. Notice that they all seem to turn outward. This is achieved by smooth curved lines that “embrace” the main shape.

While learning the simple science of how to draw a rose, pay attention to the characteristic lines, gradually adding new petals to the bud:

On at this stage the shape of the rose is already clearly visible, but this is more of a sketch than a drawing. The rose will finally take its form when the last, large, already opened petals are applied.

Until now, the leading role in depicting a flower has been assigned to a simple pencil. It's time to move on to the part of the lesson that explains how to draw a rose in color. For this you will need a pink pencil. Use it to trace the outline of the sketch, and carefully erase the lines from a simple slate. In this case, the colored line will also, of course, be erased, but it will still remain.

Now the most enjoyable stage of the process called "How to draw a rose" - coloring! It's time to shade the petals. But first you need to pay attention to those areas that will remain the brightest, and therefore the lightest, almost white. It is most convenient to begin applying color with faint shading on the darkest areas in subsequent places.

Don't think too much about the petal shading technique. Do as you please, observing the main condition: the brightest areas should remain almost white, and the darkest areas should remain rich pink. The transition from light to dark should be gradual.

This is roughly what the main layer should look like. Ours is pink. Despite the fact that the painted rose has become recognizable, it is not the final version yet.

At the end - finishing with a red pencil. Scarlet strokes in the direction of petal growth in the most shaded places will make the rose more expressive.

To draw a rose you don't need exact recipe with the required amount of application of one color or another. Rely on your own taste, because you are an artist, and you know better how your rose should look!

We make several more smaller circles in the workpiece. We make them quickly, it doesn’t matter if they come out uneven.

The smallest circle is the inner petals of the flower. There are usually no more than 5 of them. They are rolled up and look like a small glass.

Completed with a simple pencil the preparation of the rose is already beginning to resemble our final goal. Therefore, we continue to make the remaining circles in the same style. We draw each petal beautifully. And we get a preparation very similar to our plant.

Step 3. Goblet bud

We make another “glass” inside it. These are the inner petals of a rose that are gathered together. And there are no more than 5 of them either.

We decorate the outer petals. How can you draw them? Like those that slightly on the sides hide the glass in their folds, like Cinderella’s dress, which she wore to her ball. A goblet rose made in pencil in stages, in just 3 steps, looks very believable.

We rise higher and draw the next “floor”.

This flower is a little “ruffled”, and its inner petals bear little resemblance to those arranged in a certain order. And yet, it is there. How to learn to draw them? It's like they're wrapping the core.

Step. 5. Coloring

We depict stems and leaves. We “lower” the roses into the vase. It turned out to be a good bouquet.

Let's start coloring. We paint each detail with our own color.

When we are about 5 years old, it is enough to simply fill the white space with the intended color.

But this is not enough if we have much more years. We are able to make a slight shadow on the petals.

Or, remember that the edging may be a different color.

Rose is the recognized queen of flowers, loved by millions of people. Since ancient times, it has been a symbol of love, sung by poets, artists and great composers.

At first glance, drawing a beautiful rose is not at all difficult, although, of course, it depends on your level of preparation. However, almost everyone faces difficulties when drawing, some at the stage of creating an outline with a pencil, others at the stage of drawing shadows with paints.

How to draw a rose step by step for beginning artists will be discussed below.

Drawing a rose - step-by-step instructions for children and their parents

Stage 1. Drawing contours. To begin, draw the outlines of the future flower with thin interrupted lines. Externally, these outlines resemble a polygon. On the sides, draw 2 or 3 broken triangles - they will later become rose petals. In the center of the polygon, draw a circle without bringing its ends together (see image 1.1).

Stage 2. Draw the petals. The creative part of creating a drawing. The petals inside the outline are drawn in a chaotic order and of any size. We also advise you to depict them with thin interrupted lines, so that in the future, if necessary, you can correct the sketch without leaving marks (see image 1.2).

Having finished with the petals inside the outline, add splendor to the sketch by drawing similar petals, but outside it.

Petals can be depicted with smooth curves, curls, or rounding - as you like. Don't be afraid to experiment by periodically comparing your sketch to the template.

After the petals, move on to decorating the leaves. Give the outlined triangular contours smooth shapes, not forgetting to draw the leaves inside (see image 1.3).

Stage 3. Creating shadows with a pencil. To look natural, the painted flower does not have enough shadows. Select small areas of the drawing, which must include the side petals, the core and leaves, and create shadows on them with light dashed lines (see sketch 1.4).

The picture is ready.

How to draw a bouquet of roses in a vase

Have you learned to draw a rose using the method described above? Then you won’t find it difficult to draw a bouquet of these flowers.

Usually bouquets are depicted in vases, so we will give just such an example. To create a sketch, let's take a bouquet of three roses as a basis (see image 2.1).

Let's start drawing from the bottom flower. To create a blossoming bud, use the steps described in the "How to draw a rose" section.

In the same way, draw the remaining two buds, one slightly higher and to the right, draw the other above them (see image 2.2).

After creating the blossoming buds, move on to depicting the stems and leaves. Fill the space between the flowers with them, giving the picture volume. Pay special attention to the leaves of the lower rose, as they will hang down the vase (see image 2.3).

Now let's start drawing the vase itself. To do this, visually determine the middle of the lower bud and draw a small straight line from this point down. Draw a straight line on the right in the same way, maintaining the proportions so that the vase looks natural. Two straight lines define the neck of the vase. After drawing two arcs, create its shape. The straight line connecting the arcs will serve as the bottom of the vase (see image 2.4).

The sketch is ready. The last step is to create shadows with light shading. Try to vary the pressure on the pencil to create a natural shadow. The leaves should be shaded with a darker shade, the petals with a lighter shade. Don't forget to shade the vase to give the image volume (see image 2.5).

The picture is ready.

How to paint a rose with watercolors

The first step to painting a flower in watercolor is creating a sketch. You can either draw it yourself or purchase a ready-made one.

Determine a palette of colors for yourself, and for painting the petals, choose two or three shades that are in harmony with each other. As you paint, apply one color first, then another. This is done to ensure a smooth transition and create a realistic picture.

Before starting work, lightly moisten the drawing with water and then begin to apply the first layer of paint to the petals, carefully painting them over. Before starting a new petal, wait until the previous one is completely dry, so as not to accidentally spoil the design (see image 3.1).

The most popular shades of flowers are pink, orange, purple, blue and cherry, mixed with each other.

When the first layer is dry, start creating shadows. To do this, identify the darkened areas (most often these are the bends of the petals and the core) and carefully add more dark colors. Then select two or three petals for yourself and add saturation to them. Finally, don’t forget about the leaves and stem, which should also stand out in color (see image 3.2).

If desired, add a background while painting the details using a similar color palette. In this case, paints should also be applied to paper damp from water (see image 3.3.).

The picture is ready.

Having learned to draw roses on paper, many continue to improve and are eventually able to depict them even on their nails, which, of course, requires exceptional skill. If the described methods seem complicated, first try to draw the flower you like cell by cell with a pencil, pen or felt-tip pens. To do this, you will need a notebook and a drawing example, which you can either create yourself or purchase in a store.
