Start by drawing a vertical oval to be the center of the flower. Create a wrap effect by adding a wavy line diagonally through the center of the oval.

You can create a full rose or a smaller rose by adding more or less petals. Draw varying petals around the original oval shape. These petal shapes should vary at least by one shape being a soft "B" shape and one with a "}" shape. Keep adding these shapes around and one behind the other until you have the look you want.

Here is what your leaf should look like. Once you are happy with the amount of petals, draw the leaves. These will be in the shop of a teardrop with a point at the end. Draw a line through the middle of each with lines going across it as well. You can draw as many or as few leaves as you'd like.

Color your rose in with your black colored pencil or watercolors. If you'd like, you also can color in the leaves to be green. You also can add a stem.
