Draw an unblown rose

The bud has always been considered a symbol of youth, innocence - it is still preparing to become a flower, but the time will come when it will open in full force. This has its own charm, so let's start - we need to figure out how to draw a rose in stages.

First, the general forms - you need to depict two symmetrical lines, curved in two places.

Now we form the petals. To do this, we omit two smooth lines diagonally towards the center.

In the recess left in the center, draw a few more petals. The central ones will no longer be sharp, but rounded.

Under the flower there are some green leaves, saying scientific language- sepals. Let's picture them. And don't forget the stem.

Now you can color the flower. Let the bud be red, and the stem and sepals dark green.

See, it's simple. If you liked this lesson, then watch this video - it will be interesting.

How to draw a graceful rosebud

Let's continue the topic of buds - there is another very simple and interesting option how to draw unopened rose pencil.

First of all, draw a spiral at the top of the sheet.

Then draw under it curved line, something like a small vase without a handle or an elongated letter U.

Now we draw the petals - one of them will go down from the edge of the "letter U", and the second - from the spiral.

At the bottom we add a small semi-oval - a receptacle, and at the bottom - a stem.

And, of course, you need to add leaves.

Then you need to add color to the flower. We use colored pencils for this.

The drawing is now complete. For those who like video tutorials, it will be interesting to watch this video:

crimson rose

Although classic version considered a scarlet rose, this flower has many varieties that differ in size, shape, color. And a rose of bright crimson color will look amazingly beautiful. You can see this for yourself, because now we will learn how to draw a rose for beginners.

First, let's set general form. It will somewhat resemble a cup without a handle.

Now we draw a kind of “heart” on a tangent to it. Only not with two halves, but with three.

These three semicircles are the outer petals of the rose. Now we need to add internal ones. They will be sharper, thinner, more graceful.

After that, add a stem and a leaf to the flower.

You also need to add small sharp leaves at the bottom of the bud - these are the so-called sepals. And another leaf coming from the stem.

For expressiveness, let's draw all the main contours with a marker.

After that, the drawing can be safely painted. The rosette will be, as we have already said, bright crimson.

And the stem, leaves and sepals are green.

Everything, our crimson rose is completely finished. If something is not clear, you can watch this video and how to understand everything:

Realistic Example

When learning to draw, all novice artists want their drawings to look as realistic and natural as possible. So learning how to draw a beautiful realistic rose will be interesting for everyone.

Let's start with the inside of the flower. The petals there are very small, slightly increasing from the center to the edges.

The rest will be larger: you need to depict them layer by layer, like cabbage leaves.

The outer leaves will be very large and wide. And they are no longer close to each other.

Let's add sepals already familiar to us from below under the flower and draw one leaf coming from the stem. It should be wide, with small notches on the edges.

The stem and leaves must be drawn to the end. Do not forget that roses have thorns on their stems. They are not very large, but quite noticeable.

Let's start coloring. Here it is done with colored pencils. The flower will be bright red.

And the leaves are a deep dark green hue.

For expressiveness, you can add a little shadow between the petals.

That's all - the flower is completely drawn. For those who want to know more, there is this helpful video:

Bouquet of roses

Before this, the lessons were devoted to drawing a single flower, but in this section everything will be more interesting - we will learn how to draw a bouquet of roses. It will look amazing.

First, you need to outline the position of each flower in the bouquet. For now, we are doing this schematically - we will depict the stems with lines, and the flowers with circles.

Then we will begin to depict the outer petals on large buds.

Then - leaves and small petals. Some flowers already have full stems.

We finalize the middle of the flowers and that's it small parts. The stems collected at the bottom will be tied with a ribbon.

Now we need to draw the contours and erase all auxiliary lines.

cheers, our beautiful bouquet ready. As you can see, there is nothing complicated here - it is only important to follow the instructions clearly and accurately.

For beginner artists

If you are just starting your creative way, do not think that you cannot draw a rose. To understand how to draw a rose easily, you need to follow this simple instruction:

First, we set the general form. Most of all, it resembles a bowl or a small bowl.

Then add the stem and leaves.

Let's move on to the petals - on the "bowl" you need to draw a triangle with the top down, and draw on the outer rim wavy line. You can also add several inner petals at once.

At the base of the stem we make a small ball - a receptacle, and draw lines from the edge to the inner petals, dividing the “waves” into separate petals.

At the bottom of the bud, we also make small elongated triangles - these are sepals, we have already met them.

Now that all the basics are drawn, you can draw the outlines.

And paint our flower - a bud in red, everything else - in green.

See, nothing complicated. But if you want to know a little more, watch this video:

How to draw a rose with a pencil? Lesson for children

How to draw a rose with a pencil lesson for kids? Rose is a classic flower that is given not only to women, but also to men. She has different types and colors. The most popular roses are white, yellow and red. Our drawing will be created using a simple pencil, so we will rely on shades, and not on colors. The rose will have a slightly open bud, petals and a small stem. The illustration is simple, so not only adults, but also children can draw it.

Tools and materials:

1. Sheet of white paper.
2. Hard simple pencil.
3. Soft simple pencil.
4. Eraser.

Stages of work:

Step 1. First, draw a figure in which we will build a flower bud. We draw a square, but its height will be slightly larger than its width. We have outlined the height and width of the future bud, beyond which it is impossible to go:

Step 2 Inside the square, draw a figure that looks like an inverted egg. Its edges on top should be in contact with the contours of the square. We have drawn the general shape of the bud:

Step 3 We turn to the drawing of rose petals. The bud will be half open, so the petals fit snugly at the base, and separate and twist a little towards the edge. Let's start with two petals that are on the surface of the bud. They intersect in the center. From them, add two straight lines upwards, from which we will draw the rest of the petals:

Step 4 Let's draw in front along the edge of the petals - bends. From above on the sides we round off the petals that go behind the bud:

Step 5 Let's add more petals inside the flower. Towards the center, they become smaller and fit closer to each other:

Step 6 Add a couple more petals in the center, which twist into a tube. We make the edges of the petals a little sharper, and their outline is wavy:

Step 7 We won't need the square anymore, so we can remove it with an eraser. We leave only the kennels of the flower:

Step 8 Under the bud, draw a few long leaves that twist at the ends, like petals. Add a stem in the center:

Step 9 Now we put a shadow on the bud. Let's start with the extreme petals of the rose. At the bends, we make the strokes denser, respectively, there the shadow will be larger than on a flat surface:

Step 10 Strokes on the petals are applied along the growth and bends. At the base, the shadow will be larger than at the edges:

Step 11 The front petal will be the lightest in the entire picture. Let's add a shadow only along the edge and draw a contour:

Step 12 Let's draw the petals that are on background. Only their tops are visible, so we add a shadow only near the edge of the petal that is in front of them:

A rose is an amazingly beautiful flower with an interesting bud shape, graceful petals, and a rich palette of colors. No wonder the queen of flowers is present on many greeting card, and artists love to portray her very much. Schoolchildren also like to draw roses to please their mother, grandmother, beloved teacher, or just to admire a beautiful composition. Of course, children's masterpieces are simple and spontaneous, but adults can help a child improve his visual skills. So, for example, in various techniques you can successfully use phased drawing.

Necessary tools and materials for drawing

For fruitful creative activity adults, first of all, should equip him workplace- provide a spacious table. Great importance has a comfortable chair: a young artist should not sit bent over.

To work in various techniques, you will need the following tools:

• sheets of white paper A4;
• colored loose cardboard (for gouache painting);
• a simple pencil (soft or hard-soft), always sharpened;
• eraser;
• colored pencils (as an option - wax crayons);
• gouache;
• watercolor paints;
• brushes of different thicknesses.

You can draw a rose graphic technique, colored pencils, paints

Another task of an adult is to prepare in advance technological maps with step-by-step drawing schemes so that the child always has them at hand (these may well be photographs from thematic sites).

How to draw a rose step by step with a pencil

Rose - not only very beautiful flower, but also a rather complex object for drawing (a bud consists of many petals nested one inside the other). But if the child draws it with a pencil in stages, then he will succeed.

Do not press too hard on the tool when applying the first strokes. The approximate outlines of the flower should be such that the student can easily erase them in case of a mistake. You can draw brighter lines at the final stage of work (you can use a soft pencil for this purpose).

rose buds

A flower arrangement may consist only of a bud (or several), without a stem, surrounded by petals.

1. First, you should outline the center of the bud.

   

   The first stage is the designation of the central part of the bud

2. After that, we line up the petals around the center. various shapes, bottom and top, sides. The degree of fluffiness of the flower depends on how much the artist extends the lines of the bud.

   

   From the center to different sides petals of arbitrary shape should depart

3. Gradually, the rose becomes more and more magnificent.

   

   The queen of flowers is getting more and more magnificent

4. And finally, the charming bud is ready.

   

   Lush bud already drawn

5. The next stage of drawing is the image of the leaves. They should also be of different sizes and differ from each other in shape: some are fancifully curved, while others are more straight.

   

   Around the bud, leaves of different sizes and shapes are depicted.

6. And the final touch - you need to designate the veins on the leaves so that they become more realistic.

   

   To make the image more realistic, you need to mark the veins on the leaves

Another way to depict a bud is to start with a spiral, gradually building petals around it.

The center of the rosebud resembles a spiral

Unblown rosebuds also look charming. The base in this case will be a small semicircle - it is from it that the stem stretches, at the bottom the bud is surrounded by small green leaves. In the upper part, you need to add a few petals: the degree of pomp of the flower depends on their number.

Drawing a half-closed bud begins with a semicircle, inside which petals are depicted

rose with stem

The next version of the rose is a flower with a stem and leaves. Let the bud be almost closed again.

Drawing a rose in a vase

Look great on the drawings of roses in vases or pots. Getting Started creative process, the young artist must decide where he will start work: with a flower or a vase.

Coloring the sketch with colored pencils

After the child learns to realistically draw roses with a simple pencil, you can start coloring the silhouette with colored pencils or crayons. The following important points are taken into account.

With regard to the colors, then roses are most often depicted by children as red. But this flower can have many other shades in the composition: pink, yellow, orange, lilac. Roses painted in a very dark shade of red - almost black - look spectacular.

Note that younger students in their drawings often simply fill in the intended contour with the desired color.

In drawings elementary school student usually missing without shadow transitions

A small shadow on the petals looks much more interesting in the figure.

At an older age, children can already designate a shadow

Also spectacular artistic solution- edging petals of a different color (for example, purple or brown, if he himself is pink or red).

The edging of the flower can be made in a different color - it always looks beautiful

The specifics of gouache drawing for beginners

Children love to paint flowers with gouache. After all, the compositions always turn out to be bright and expressive. This technique is ideal for beginner artists: errors and inaccuracies can be masked without damaging the picture.

Since gouache is opaque and contains white, you need to draw from dark to light, but not vice versa. First, the child must decide on the composition and color palette, and then begins to paint the dark areas. Light highlights and color accents are indicated in the final work.

In gouache drawing special meaning has a background. It can be of two types.

1. Uniform shading outside the pencil sketch: the rose itself and the background are indicated by certain colors.
2. Fill. First, the background of the picture is drawn up, and when it dries, the flower is drawn directly (as an option, you can initially use not white paper, and colored cardboard).

Consider concrete examples painting roses with gouache.

Bouquet of roses

Rose on a green background

Gouache is good because it allows you to draw on a dark background. So, for a rose, you can choose a dark green base.

1. Draw a red rosebud with a thin brush.

   

   Draw a red bud on a green background with a brush

2. The resulting image is blurred with water.

   

   Blurring with water will create overflows of shades.

3. With the help of light green gouache we depict a thin stem and graceful leaves. Thorns and veins on the leaves are denoted by a darker shade of green.

   

   Draw the stem and leaves in different shades of green

4. Next, we make the bud more voluminous: we mark the borders of the petals with a light pink color.

   

   We decorate the petals in the bud with a pale pink color

5. The final stage of the drawing is work on the background. Let's create beautiful overflows with the help of green strokes of a dark and light shade.

   

   Strokes of light and dark green color make the background more expressive

Features of watercolor painting

Painting with watercolors is a more responsible job, since the flaws will already be obvious. But this technique allows you to create delicate and sophisticated flower arrangements. After some practice, the student will be able to draw quite realistic roses, from which it seems to breathe freshness.

At first it is done again pencil sketch. At the same time, the drawing should be slightly noticeable (no need to put pressure on the tool). Then comes the watercolor. We must wash the paint with water: it should be almost transparent, without a pronounced color. When painting a bud, it is better to use several shades to make the rose look natural.

It is better to fix the paper with tape or buttons: when it gets wet and then dries, ugly waves can form.

Let's consider a specific example.

1. The first stage is a pencil sketch of a rose.

   

   Pencil sketch lines should be thin and soft.

2. Raspberry paint is strongly diluted with water and applied with a thick brush to the surface of the bud. We mark the lower part of it with light green watercolor (also very diluted).

   

   The bud is painted with highly diluted raspberry paint

3. When the initial layer dries, the edges of the petals are shaded with paints of warm tones. The background is indicated by a dark cold tone (for example, purple). This will visually make the rose brighter. In this case, the light parts of the rose are shaded in a dark tone, and the dark parts, respectively, in a light tone. Color heterogeneity is only welcome: the image will be more natural. To indicate the veins on the petals, you will need fine brush. She is working on the base and the middle of the bud. It is important not to overdo it with dark shades: Otherwise, the pattern may become "cartoonish".

   

   The image becomes realistic due to color heterogeneity

4. The final part of the work is the design of the background. Here you can experiment with shades of green, as well as use yellow, purple, pink and blue. An interesting trick- those shades that are present in the palette of the rose itself are added to the corners of the background. This will balance the composition, make it warmer and more harmonious.

   

   Well if color palette roses and background will overlap

In order to understand how to draw a rose with a pencil in stages, we will divide the work into small steps. So we will easily and without problems overcome the path of mastering this technique.

Step 1. Preparation

Let's prepare everything that will help us draw and color a rose: paper, pencils, an eraser. What else may be needed to execute the image with a pencil? Photo. It is worth choosing suitable clear photographs, but you can also take painted works on our website (see below).

Step 2. Blooming spherical climbing rose

Learning to draw a rose that is fully opened and has a round, small bud shape. To do this, draw a circle.

In the workpiece, we make a few more circles of a smaller size. We quickly make them, it does not matter if they come out uneven.

The smallest circle is the inner petals of the flower. There are usually no more than 5 of them. They are folded and look like a small glass.

The rose blank, made with a simple pencil, is already beginning to resemble our final goal. Therefore, we continue to do the rest of the circles in the same style. Each petal is beautifully drawn. And we get a blank very similar to our plant.

Step.3. goblet bud

How to draw a rose with a pencil that has a goblet bud? We present the shape of the glass and transfer it to paper.

Inside it we make another "glass". These are the inner petals of the rose that are gathered together. And there are no more than 5 of them.

We make out the extreme petals. How can you draw them? Like those that slightly on the sides hide the glass in their folds, like Cinderella's dress, which she wore to her ball. A goblet-shaped rose with a pencil made in stages, in just 3 steps, looks very believable.

Step 4. Cup-shaped large-flowered bud

Learn how to draw a cupped rosebud. To do this, we make an incomplete circle, where one side is a straight line.

How to draw a rose next? It is best to start with the bottom petals. They are located just in a straight line. We can see only 5 of them: three of them are at the very bottom, the rest are on the sides.

We rise above and draw the next "floor".

This flower is a little "tousled", and its inner petals bear little resemblance to those that are arranged in a certain order. And yet, he is. How to learn to draw them? So, as if they wrap the core.

Step. 5. Coloring

First, we erase all auxiliary lines. Let's see what we got:

And this is what the picture looks like without fragments:

We represent the stems and leaves. "Lower" roses in a vase. It turned out to be a nice bouquet.

We start coloring. We direct each detail with our own color.

When we are 5 years old, it is enough just to fill white space the intended color.

But this is not enough if we are much older. We are able to make a slight shadow on the petals.

Or, remember that the edging can be a different color.

That's it, the picture is ready. In less than a year of training, we will be able to boast of our skills, which will not be inferior even to Jan Brueghel himself.

Therefore, beginners are often advised to start with simpler floral motifs, leaving for a while the idea of ​​​​drawing multilayer petals. However, if a person still wants to portray exactly a rose, without having the skills artistic painting, professionals recommend patience and a few hours of free time.

How to draw a rosebud with a pencil step by step?

The bud is the main component in drawing a rose. That is why he is given most time and effort. And it doesn’t matter at all, a closed flower, blossoming or slightly wilted. Each of the options is not simple in its own way, but very beautiful and original.

To draw a blossoming rose, you must follow the following step-by-step instructions:

1) Take a piece of paper and visually divide it into 4 equal parts. From the connection point of all lines, step back 5 cm up and down, marking these places with an ordinary pencil.

2) Draw a spiral at the top point, and the first rose petal at the bottom.

3) Use a few lines to add volume to the flower.

4) From the sides of the spiral, lower the lines down (not all the way).

5) Following the photo instructions, continue to draw the petals until the drawing is ready.

You can also draw an unblown bud. To do this, you can slightly change the technique of the first drawing or use step by step master class in the photo below.

Rose - coloring a drawing with a pencil in stages

After the contours of the rose are well drawn in pencil, it remains only to color it. To do this, you will need colored pencils with a soft lead and the drawing itself.

In order not to spoil the drawn rose, artists recommend using a simple pencil at the beginning of staining. Its main advantage is that it can be easily erased with an eraser, which means that the mistake will be easy to correct.

Strokes, transitions from one tone to another and darkening are drawn with an ordinary pencil, and after that they are painted with colored paints.

White pencil is very difficult to use. This is especially true of highlights on the petals. Therefore, in order not to spoil the work and give it volume, it is enough to leave some places unpainted (transitions, highlights).

Coloring always starts with light shades, and ends with dark ones. This allows you not to make an error in the transitions.

Strokes (thin lines) are applied to last step drawing. For them they take hard pencils for incredibly precise lines.
