But since we have already touched on the drawings, the lesson is perfect for children who can draw a rose for their mother on March 8, step by step and easily. Step by step instructions lessons are so accessible that any beginner can easily draw a rose.

Watch the lesson and do the same. Begin.

Step 1. Place the sheet of paper vertically. Draw an oval at the top. Draw a curved line at the bottom of the oval. Please note on initial stage drawing a rose, press the pencil lightly, since these are auxiliary lines that we will erase later.

Step 2. Draw the outline of the rose petals on the sketch. As you can see, any child can handle this. Let's move on to the next step.

Step 3. If you are an aspiring artist, be careful, here we will draw the preliminary outlines of the rosebud. Draw a sepal under the bud.

Step 4. Now draw the rose petals in more detail. We also show the thorns on the stem and draw the leaves.

Step 5. Now we need to be very careful, as now we will draw the main outline of the flower. We start with the bud. If in the previous steps the bud was not drawn very neatly, then it's time to fix it. We draw beautifully the outline of a rose bud, looking at an example.

Step 6. Draw the petals in the bud. Problems for beginners and children when drawing a rose should not arise, but if something does not work out, then look at the sketches of the lesson.

Step 7. We draw beautifully around the sepal under the bud with a pencil. Moving on.

Step 8. Now, carefully and slowly, draw the main contours of a rose petal with thorns. We circle the leaves.

Step 9. Take an eraser and delete all the auxiliary contours in the picture. If you touched the main contour, then just circle it with a pencil again. You should have such a graceful rose.

Step 10. If you wanted to draw a rose for mom on March 8, or even just like that, then you should definitely paint it. We paint the bud in scarlet, and the stem and petals in green.

This concludes the lesson. In the comments, share your impressions and post your work with us

1. The outline of a rosebud is easy to draw

First you need to draw the outline of the petals of the rosebud. To do this, it is not difficult to draw a circle at the top of the sheet of paper. It is not necessary to draw it perfectly even, it is important to take into account that the rose flower will be inside this outline, so immediately draw the appropriate size for the outline of the bud. Do not forget that bright lines are secondary and we will remove them in the next steps of the drawing. Rose to draw continue in the next step, but for now add the stem to the bud.

2. How to draw rose petals

First, draw the still unopened part of the bud in the very center of the rose. After that, divide the bud into two parts with a line (in the figure it of blue color). Now it will be convenient and easy to draw the lines of the petals of the left and right parts of the bud.

3. Draw the leaves and details of the bud

Now we need to draw the rose petals in detail. The contours of the petals do not have to be copied exactly from my drawing, they may have a different shape.

4. We continue to draw the petals

First, draw a stem of a flower with leaves. Draw the number of twigs and leaves at random. Above all, do not make the leaves too large. Note that the leaves of the rose are veined. For more realism, they also need to be drawn. It remains to remove unnecessary contours and draw the petals in detail. In the correct image of the petals, all the beauty of the rose pattern lies. The top outline of each petal is drawn with two lines connecting at the edge of the petal. This gives the impression that the edges of the petals are curved. This will also help us in the next step to create shadows in the bud, which will make drawing rose voluminous.

5. How to shade a rose with a simple pencil

At this stage, you have already drawn a real rose, it remains only to add shadows to the flower drawing will become voluminous. Imagine which side the source will be bright light to determine which side of the rose will be brighter. Where there are indentations between the petals, you need to draw the shadows "thicker", pressing harder on the pencil. Shadows should be at the junction of the petals. Lightly rub all the shaded areas with a pencil with your finger. This smooths out the sharp lines of the pencil, and drawing rose will look softer.

6. Drawing a rose on a graphics tablet

The drawing will look much more spectacular if, instead of toning simple pencil paint the rose with paints or crayons. Be sure to consider lighting and coloring with a colored pencil. Without the shadows, the rose will appear “flat”, two-dimensional. A picture of a rose with a simple pencil can even be slightly "tinted" with colored pencils. This is how I made a drawing of a rosebud (see below).
Coloring the rose drawing with paints would be just perfect, but only if you have them, and if you know how to use them.

A rose can be drawn different ways... In this way, it is convenient to draw an open bud, detailing each rose petal. Do not forget that bright lines are secondary and we will remove them in the next step of the drawing. This step of the drawing lesson is without comment, it is an addition to the main lesson. At each stage, you need to add highlighted lines with a pencil. They are colored blue.

How to draw a rose - step-by-step instructions for children and their parents

Stage 1. Outline drawing... To begin with, draw the outlines of the future flower with thin interrupted lines. Outwardly, these outlines resemble a polygon. Draw 2 or 3 broken triangles on the sides - they will later become rose petals. Draw a circle in the center of the polygon 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 manner and of any size. We also advise you to depict them with thin dashed lines in order to further correct the sketch, if necessary, without leaving traces (see image 1.2).

When 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, and roundings - as you like. Feel free to experiment by periodically comparing your sketch to a template.

After the petals, move on to the design of 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... The painted flower lacks shadows to look natural. Select small areas of the drawing, among which be sure to include the side petals, 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 how to draw a rose in the way described above? Then it will not seem difficult for you 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, we will take as a basis a bouquet of three roses (see image 2.1).


Let's start with the bottom flower. Use the steps outlined in How to Draw a Rose to create a full blooming bud.

Draw the remaining two buds in the same way, one a little higher and to the right, draw the other above them (see image 2.2).


After creating the blossoming buds, move on to 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 over the vase (see image 2.3).


Now we start drawing the vase itself. To do this, visually determine the middle of the lower bud and draw a small straight line down from this point. Draw a straight line to the right in the same way, keeping the proportions so that the vase looks natural. Two straight lines define the neck of the vase. After two drawn 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. Do not forget to shade the vase to add dimension to the image (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 to create a sketch. You can either draw it yourself, or purchase a ready-made one.

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

Before starting work, slightly moisten the drawing with water and then start applying the first layer of paint to the petals, carefully painting over them. Before starting a new petal, wait until the previous one is completely dry, so as not to accidentally ruin the drawing (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 the shadows. To do this, define the darkened areas (most often these are the bends of the petals and the core) and carefully add darker colors there. Then choose two or three petals for yourself and add saturation to them. Finally, do not forget about the leaves and the stem, which should also stand out in color (see image 3.2).

If desired, add a background while drawing details using a similar palette of colors. In this case, paints should also be applied to paper damp from water (see fig. 3.3.).


The picture is ready.

Having learned how to draw roses on paper, many continue to improve and ultimately are able to depict them even on their nails, which, of course, requires exceptional skill. If the described methods seemed difficult, try first to depict the flower you like in the cells with a pencil, pen or felt-tip pens. This will require a notebook and an example for drawing, which you can either create yourself or purchase in a store.
