Let's start!Draw a rose in five steps:
Start in the central part of the paper to be sure your rose fits in the page!Step 1:
-draw a simple tulip like form, just as you see on the picture,
Step 2:
- outline the inner petals adding them to the tulip form,
- in the detailed drawing I outlined with red this part.
- in the detailed drawing I outlined with red this part.
Step 3:- add the outer petals, (the contour of the rose). You can start from the green point to outline the petals, to the right or to the left, you choose.
Now here is a chance to exercise blind contour drawing. If you wish to try, put your pencil at the green point, observe and follow the line direction with your eyes and in the same time draw it with the pencil, without lifting it from the paper. Don't look at the paper till you are done and don't push the pencil, so you can erase the line if you don't like it.
It must not be the same as in my sketch. Roses are all different, still beautiful.
This way we complete the drawing from inside to outside. If you wish to draw the rose from outside to inside than complete step 3 first and than step 2. The result is the same.

Step 5:- outline the stem an the sepals.
