How to Paint Red Rose - Digital Painting Tutorial (Basic)

If you're ready, let's start !

 Step 1 

Start with the shape that you want your rose to have. The colour needs to be a dark colour from what you want your rose to be.

 Step 2 

Look at the way the petals need to go, roses always go in a messy circle but the perspective/age of the rose can make the details a
little different.

 Step 3 

Sketch out the petals fully and check if you like the
final result. Do the lines with
a lighter colour from your base.

 Step 4 

Colour in the petals. Use the base and the petal lineart for the colour and blend this. The upper part of the petal is always lighter than
the inside of the flower.

 Step 5 

Determine where the light is coming from, Then use the overlay layer to add shadow
and light. I usually use a
darker blue and a light orange/yellow.

Step 6 

Clean up your drawing and make it look a little less messy. It's important to remember that
roses usually have messy petals, dont be afraid to add
some squiggles in there.

Step 7 

Finish up your drawing and add details you would like. |
always love adding some extra lighting to give it a nice
effect. I've otherwise also added some droplets of water as if
its early in the morning.

 

BYEEE :)
