It is a plant that in the family of genus Rosa, which consists of some 100 species of perennial shrubs in the rose family. Many roses are cultivated for their beautiful flowers, which range in colour from white through various tones of yellow and pink to dark

I got to know rose first, as a token of love. You know that moment when you grow up seeing adults giving out this flower as a symbol of love to their lovers. This I saw both in movies and also in real world. Reason for using this particular flower is still not known to me but it's been a practice that has been on ground even before I was born.

Maybe that has been the reason while Rose flower became so popular, I mean both young and old knows about it, in fact some people learn to draw it as a way of passing their message of love to their crush/lovers through pictures.

Drawing a Rose

When it comes to drawing flowers, there’s nothing that shares the sentiment of love as much as a rose does. They have come to symbolize love like no other.

The only catch to drawing roses, is that they are not nearly as simple as say, a daisy, which has all its petals spread out and is pretty easy to see. Roses, whether looking at them in profile, or top view, have lovely irregularly wrapped petals that are trickier to draw.

One solution is to draw a rose that is still in bloom, so it has just a few petals, and keep an easy side view. The layered shapes are much easier to see and draw, and young artists can spend more time adding detail to their leaves. Let's look at some of this steps that will help you draw you petals.

•    Start your simple rose drawing with a teardrop/egg shape.  This will be the inner bud of the rose. Use very light lines.
•    Draw the "opening" of this shape.
•    Draw little petals inside the rose illustration.
•    Close those petals into a heart shape—this will be the flower outline drawing of other petals.
•    Connect the rose flower outline drawing with the rest of the bud, creating a petal shape.

•    We need to place the bud inside a "cup" of petals in the rose flower drawing. First, make it out of small petals then use larger ones
•    The rest of the petals in your realistic rose drawing should bend more and more down.
•    When you're done, press harder over the lines you want to see better to bring out the final shape.
