How to draw a rose
The rose is rightfully considered the queen of flowers. Its rich color shades are always pleasing to the eye. How to draw a flower with a pencil and convey its splendor?
Easy enough. The result will please the novice artist.
A simple option on how to draw a rose step by step with a pencil:
- Make a pencil sketch of the base of the future rose in the shape of a bowl, or rather a jug with an oval neck at the top.
- From the left edge of the oval, draw a line to the center of the base of the jug. This is the first petal. Extend it with another curved line near the oval, creating a bent edge of the petal.
- Create a similar petal on the right. Also bend the edge with a line.
- Between them draw the wavy edge of the middle petal.
- Give the oval a curved outline. Draw curled petals inside.
- Using two parallel lines from the base of the flower, draw a stem and two narrow leaves on it.
- Outline the outline of the flower brightly, drawing out all the details. Shade the areas of the flower that are in the shade. All bent petals should be light.
- Add shadow to one side of the stem, giving it volume.
- Draw two rounded leaves on the stem, shade, highlight the veins.
There are many ways to beautifully draw a rose in color. But they are aimed at more experienced artists.
Chamomile for the littlest artists
Flowers are the beauty of living nature that you want to convey and leave in memory on a leaf. Even small children depict the sun, mother and flowers in their first drawings.
The simplest flower for children's drawings is chamomile. The following way can explain to your child how to draw this flower easily.
All you need is a sheet of paper, a pencil or a felt-tip pen, if desired.
- Draw a circle in the middle of the top half of the sheet. This will be the chamomile core.
- From it, outline the four main petals, up, down and on both sides of the circle. Try to keep them the same size.
- Between every two petals place two or three more similar ones. The result should be a flower with 16 or 12 petals.
- Draw a double, slightly curved line down from the lower petals. This is a chamomile stem.
- At the bottom of the stem, on two opposite sides, draw two elongated pointed leaves.
The second way to draw a daisy
You can draw a chamomile in another way, making the drawing colored. It will require simple, yellow, green, dark green, orange and blue pencils.
Step-by-step instructions for children:
- As in the previous method, the chamomile core is first marked with a small circle in the center.
- Draw a large circle around it. It shows at what distance the petals will end.
- Then the petals themselves are formed of the same shape around the core.
- They should not be drawn very tightly, leaving a small gap between the petals. You should get about 8 petals.
- Behind the first row of petals, make a second one, between the petals of the front row. This will make the chamomile look more lush.
- Color the center of the flower with a yellow pencil. Add orange color in a semi-circle around the base of the core, adding volume.
- From the center of the petals, slightly shade them with a blue pencil.
- Draw a stem with pointed leaves. Color in with a green pencil. Make dark green veins on the leaves.
Using this simple drawing technique, you can draw several daisies next to each other on one sheet of paper, collecting them into a delicate bouquet.
