There are things that never lose their relevance, there are flowers that inspire entire generations to creative deeds. Today we will draw a rose for the third time.

We have already drawn a rosebud separately, as well as the entire rose. The third option is also dedicated to the flower along with the stem and spines. This will be a traditional step-by-step instruction for the site, following which you can draw a beautiful rose with a pencil. And so that you don’t get bored, and even feel even more motivated to draw this lovely flower, I’ll tell you about one interesting oriental wisdom related to roses.

Some mystics and sages compared the rose to the life of a successful and spiritually developed person. Still don't know why? Everything is amazingly simple! Before becoming a delightful rosebud, full of charm and fragrance, each one has to go through a path from its foundation to its blossoming, and along the way there will be many thorns and thorns. If we don’t stop, don’t be lazy and don’t give in to the temptation to become consumed by fears, then each of us can become a beautiful flower of life!

How to draw a rose step by step with a pencil beautifully

This is a difficult task we have today, which we will definitely cope with! Prepare simple pencils - we will need hard ones for the first step, in which we will create a simple sketch. And if you want your beautiful rose to have contours, then in subsequent stages you will need to draw them with a soft pencil or a black pen - it all depends on your own preferences. And colored pencils are perfect for coloring. If you want something more, you can try using gouache or watercolor. In general, the lesson is suitable for both beginners and those who have some experience in drawing.

1 - Make a sketch in the form of a “chupachups” with “hands”. These lines and the circle at the top will help us maintain the proportions necessary for our rose. Immediately draw one lower petal.

2 - Now gradually move towards the central petals of the rose, gradually outlining the bud. Rely on the sketch circle - it will serve as a border for the petals of the bud. At first glance it may seem difficult. But since we draw each petal in turn, and the sequence is shown in the pictures, everything turns out very simple and easy!

3 - Once the rosebud is drawn, add leaves at its base.

4 - It's time to switch to the stem. At the very beginning of the lesson, we drew a “trunk”, and based on this line, draw the stem of the rose.

5 - Add two small branches with leaves on either side of the stem. And don’t forget about the thorns, because without them a rose is not a rose.

6 - Now you have reached the final stages of the lesson on drawing a rose with a pencil. I'm sure it already looks beautiful on the piece of paper in front of you. But there are a few more stages after which it will literally come to life before your eyes. Now we have to carefully erase the sketch with an eraser so that it does not interrupt the “beautiful rose” effect.

7 - The last one is the most interesting and vibrant stage. Now you have to add colors and shades to the flower. You can build on the example given and use pencils or any other colored drawing tools to color the rose.

Rose. How beautiful is this flower, personifying love and devotion! The floral symbolism of the rose goes deep into history. After all, even in ancient times, people made different ones and gave them to each other as a sign of love and respect. Thus, one given rose was equivalent to heartfelt recognition. While twelve roses, according to biblical traditions, symbolized a strong life.

This tendency to express feelings and emotions with the help of flower arrangements has survived to this day: in Paris and Rome, in Moscow and Amsterdam, instead of a thousand words, people give each other these incredibly beautiful flowers.

There are many varieties of roses, and all of them, without exception, are liked by our children. Without being imbued with the symbolic meaning, kids draw roses on postcards, while older kids make crafts and appliqués. And all because even the smallest artists are convinced that a flower of such unearthly beauty simply cannot fail to please a mother, grandmother or beloved teacher. Of course, children's first masterpieces touch with their simplicity and spontaneity, but we can help the child improve his skills and teach him how to draw roses correctly and beautifully.

Actually, this is what we will do. So, we present to your attention a master class on how to beautifully draw a rose step by step.

Option 1

First, let's look at how to easily and correctly draw such a beautiful rose with a pencil step by step.

First of all, let's prepare everything you need: a blank sheet of paper, an eraser, a simple pencil.

So we figured out how to draw a rose with a pencil step by step, all that remains is to decorate it with paints or colored pencils.

Option 2

Painted flowers may be less beautiful than real ones, but not if they were drawn by children's hands. Such gifts are priceless and will never compare with even the most luxurious bouquet. So let's show the child how to draw such a beautiful rose with a pencil.

We develop the ability to draw from childhood.

Of course, not everyone can become a skilled artist and paint pictures, but anyone can master the basics of depicting certain objects. Even such a complex and multifaceted flower as a rose.

In order to draw a beautiful rose, you need to have minimal skills: be able to hold pencils in your hands and distinguish them by their degree of hardness.

It is advisable to first watch a few basic drawing lessons that explain the main points:

• how to shade a pencil;
• how to show light and shadow;
• how to choose the right paper.

Trying to depict interesting objects will also be useful; in them you will learn to be more attentive to details and correlate the proportions and position of the object on paper.

Let's look at how easy it is to draw a rose step by step:

1. We start with a bud, its top resembles a spiral, we draw it.
2. We step back a little and draw a large petal below.
3. Add volume to the bud and continue it down a little.
4. Now we add side petals around the bud using wavy lines until the flower takes the desired form.

The image of the bud is also not difficult. It is worth remembering that all lines are smooth and slightly curved, which follows the natural contours of the flower.

Step by step drawing:

1. For the base of the flower, we draw a small semicircle, and place a bud in it, which also looks like a semicircle, only elongated.
2. We add leaves in the form of small wavy lines along the edges and one in the middle.
3. Now we draw the top, retreating from the edge of the bud, we draw the petals that overlap each other, and we draw the same in the center.

Bouquet in a vase step by step

Drawing a bouquet in a vase will be a little more difficult, since it will require knowledge of proportions and light and shade.

1. First, you should make a sketch that will show what is where and what size the elements will be.
2. Then, having determined the location of the buds, depict them in varying degrees of openness.
3. We outline the vase in outline, with general lines, “covering” it a little with flowers.
4. Now we are working on the details: the pattern on the vase, the leaves of the flowers, the stems, the water in the vase, etc.

You can take any picture or photograph as a basis, hone your skills and design a beautiful birthday card for your mother or loved one.

How to color correctly with colored pencils?

In order to draw with colored pencils, you need to have an image in front of you or remember well what a flower looks like. It is better to give children pictures of drawn flowers for orientation, or put a real rose in front of them.

Colored pencils don't erase well, so before you draw with them, you need to make a simple sketch. You can start coloring the finished sketch. It is better to use several pencils that are similar in color, but you can also use one, changing the intensity of the coloring.

It is better to start with lighter areas, carefully distributing the color, then moving on to brighter and darker areas, to which it is better to apply the shade in several layers.

Darker and brighter are the places that are located in the depths, at the base, on the folds of the petals; the color is minimal. The edges of the petals are also usually made a little brighter so that the transitions between them are visible.

Do not forget about the veins, which give the image realism. They can be done using a darker and harder pencil.

Drawings of roses for copying

For those who do not have an excellent memory for images, it is better to use samples.

Greeting cards, paintings by famous artists, and simply photographs of flowers may be suitable for these purposes. Looking at them, it is more convenient to focus on the location of the petals, their color and size.

: daisies, buttercups, lilies, daffodils, violets and others. But the rose has long been considered the queen of all flowers. This delicate plant has a beautiful bud shape with many beautiful petals, prickly thorns, and an intoxicating aroma.

It is difficult to meet a person in the world who would not admire this elegant plant. It's no wonder that many people want to know, with all its small details. In this lesson we will show you how to draw a rosebud in stages and each stage will be accompanied by visual pictures.

Step by step lesson

Stage 1 - draw the contours

To begin, draw the outline of the future rose using thin broken lines. Outwardly, they are somewhat similar to a polyhedron. On the sides, draw small broken triangles - the leaves of the flower. Mark the middle with a barely noticeable circle. How to draw all the details is clearly visible in the first picture.

Stage 2 - add petals

This is a very enjoyable part of creating a rose on a leaf. In principle, petals can be drawn in any chaotic order. Show some imagination. Draw them with thin lines, making small smooth transitions. Pay special attention to the middle of the flower.

You will draw thicker lines during the drawing process, but now you should try not to make a mistake, and if the line is thick, after erasing with an eraser, a mark will remain on the paper. Draw a center line along the entire length of the side leaves.

Stage 3 - even more petals

Since our rose is not yet lush enough, we should add small graceful petals over the entire area. Smooth curves, curls, roundings - all this is a technique for drawing rose petals. Now you need to shape the side leaves. Look at how it is shown in the picture and make a similar appearance on your paper.

Stage 4 - finishing touches

All that remains to be done is to complete a few moments, after which your rose will look like a real one. When a flower grows in a flowerbed, the sun illuminates it and gives it its rays. Some petals and leaves are in the shade, giving the flower a mysterious and beautiful appearance.

Lightly shade the small areas of the rose, the middle and side leaves. If you followed all the tips, then your rose will definitely turn out as beautiful as the example.

Video lesson

First you need to draw the outline of the rosebud petals. It is not at all difficult to do this by drawing a circle at the top of a 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 located inside this outline, so immediately draw the appropriate size for the outline of the bud. Do not forget that the bright lines are secondary and in subsequent drawing steps we will remove them. Draw a rose Let's continue in the next step, but for now add a 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 this, divide the bud into two parts with a line (in the picture it is blue). Now it will be convenient and easy to draw lines on the petals of the left and right parts of the bud.

3. Draw the leaves and bud details

Now you 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. Continue drawing the petals

To begin, draw a flower stem with leaves. Draw the number of branches and leaves arbitrarily. The main thing is not to make the leaves too large. Please note that rose leaves have veins. To make them more realistic, you also need to draw them. All that remains is to remove the extra contours and draw the petals in detail. The beauty of a rose design lies in the correct depiction of the petals. 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 rose drawing voluminous.

5. How to shade a rose with a simple pencil

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

6. Drawing a rose on a graphics tablet

The drawing will look much more impressive if, instead of tinting with a simple pencil, you color the rose with paints or colored pencils. Be sure to take lighting into account when coloring with colored pencil. Without shadows, the rose will look "flat", two-dimensional. A picture of a rose with a simple pencil can even be slightly “touched up” with colored pencils. This is roughly how I made the rosebud drawing (see below).
Coloring a picture of a rose 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 in different ways. This method is convenient for drawing an open bud, drawing out each rose petal in detail. Do not forget that the bright lines are secondary and in the next step of the drawing we will remove them. This step of the drawing lesson is without comments, it is an addition to the main lesson. At each stage, you need to add highlighted lines with a pencil. They are painted blue.

After you learn how to correctly draw a picture of one rose, you can begin a more complex task - draw a beautiful bouquet of roses. Notice how real roses stand in a vase, some of them have small, not yet opened buds, the stems are tilted, the leaves have different sizes. The best way to draw a bouquet of roses is to sketch a living bouquet, first with a simple pencil, and then paint it with paints. But even if you don’t have a real bouquet of roses, you can copy roses from a color picture or photo.

My very first painting with roses. The still life is made with oil paints. Please don't criticize too much, I was only 12 years old.

The lesson on how to draw a ballerina is designed for those who already know how to draw well, since drawing a person is not easy, much less being able to convey the grace and elegance of dance. Ballerinas are given flowers, so you can draw a bouquet of roses lying on the stage.

Almost all flower drawings on the site are made step by step on a graphics tablet. You can use a color picture to color a flower that you drew step by step with a simple pencil.

There are millions of flowers on our planet; there are several hundred varieties of roses alone. When drawing a bouquet, you can add tulips or several roses, the main thing is that the color of the rose is combined with other flowers. The bouquet in the picture can be decorated with ribbons and leaves from other flowers.

Drawing a daisy is the simplest task and anyone who is beginning to learn how to draw can do it. Try to draw a daisy; if this task is not difficult for you, then drawing a rose will also be “up to your standards.”

If you are drawing a rose, a butterfly design can decorate and complement the rose design. Draw a butterfly flying up to the rose or sitting on the top leaf. There is no need to draw a butterfly on the bud itself, since this is the main object of the rose drawing.

The house can be drawn in many different ways, such as making a tile roof, drawing double doors, or adding a chimney for the fireplace lined with bricks. To enliven the landscape near your house, you can draw roses growing in a flower bed.
