Step-by-step Instructions for Drawing a Rose Flower Start by drawing an open sided oval in the center of your page. Draw the oval as if the upper right quarter has been erased. Draw a smaller arc within the open oval, with its ends meeting the left and bottom sides of the oval. Use three overlapping arcs to form Now, begin using swooping, curved the first petals. These should form a lines to craft more petals. The smaller shape similar to a lumpy circle. should attach to the upper right of your drawing. The larger will attach to the first curve, enveloping the bottom left of your drawing.
As you continue to add curved petal lines, note how you can create a "fold" detail in the petal by allowing one line to extend into the center of the petal. Draw another curved line petal enveloping the bottom left side of the drawing. Note how each petal is slightly larger than the last. Use curved lines to draw another petal on the upper right hand side. Again, let the upper line extend to form a petal fold. Use one curved line to form a smaller petal on the bottom left.
Use one curved line to form a petal on the bottom right. Use one curved line to form a petal on the upper right. Use one curved line to form a petal on the bottom right. Use one curved line to fill in the gap in the upper left of the flower with another petal.
Now, add some detail. Place a small curved line within each of the outer five petals, radiating from the center of the flower, two-thirds of the way to the edge of the petal. These lines give the drawing depth. Continue to add detail to the inner petals. Allow one or two curved lines to radiate from the flower's center towards the petal edge. Use two lines to form a curved triangle shape at the upper left corner of the flower. Use two more lines to form a triangular leaflet, slightly overlapping the first. Draw more leaflets - two lines each, in a curved triangle shape - on three more sides of the flower. Opposite the first two leaflets, draw two more.
Between the leaflets, you will outline the leaves. Start with an arcing line for one side of the leaf. Draw a loose S-curve to form the other side of the leaf. Draw three leaves in this way, evenly spaced around the flower. To draw a central vein in each leaf, begin a curving line at the leaf tip and connect it to the petal at the leaf's center. Add veins to the leaves. In each leaf half, draw three to seven straight lines radiating from the central vein to the edge of the leaf. Finish your drawing by erasing any stray marks and coloring your flower.
