    Know the secret of how to draw a rose. When roses grow and bloom, they start from a small bud, and then open up. This is exactly how you are going to start out when you draw a rose. Start with the inner part of the rose, and work your way outwards.

  2. Step 2

    Use concentric, organic “circles.” Simply make your lines of the circle somewhat wavy as you go. Depending on your style, you can draw these more curvy or a bit jagged. Either way you draw it is fine, because if you look at different varieties of roses, the curvature of the petals vary.

  3. Step 3

    Continue to draw these concentric petals. When you draw a rose, you can use a photograph as a reference, and notice that they get larger the farther away from the middle you get. Learning to draw means you need to look carefully at the details, and draw what you see.

  4. Step 4
    Draw a rose with leaves.

    Draw a stem and leaves if you wish on your rose. And that's it! I hope the next time you draw a rose it's a little easier. For more ideas on how to draw, check the resource links below. Good luck!

on 1/22/2009 I appreciate the "RR," but please don't "C" just for the sake of "C." It's unethical and goes against eHow and Adsense TOS. I'd hate to see anyone get into hot water here. Thank you.
