How to draw a realistic rose flower step by step tutorial roses flowers tulips sunflower orchids etc. This is a video of me drawing a rose. I will show you how to draw realistic roses.

Notice how I used the darkest tone that I possibly could for the background. The purpose is to make the rose pop out. Roses are generally bright and colorful, therefore you want to make the rose stand out. A good technique is to apply dark tone around the rose. Light around dark objects engrave objects into the paper. Dark around light objects push objects out of the paper. The same applies to tulips and other flowers.

First draw the outline and continue in a spiral towards the center, then once you have the outline, start to add tone in. Roses have a lot of highlights, notice where I lifted the tone out of the paper. I hope this tutorial helps.

Sun Flower

Monday, April 12th, 2010

The Italian film, sunflower, which end is one of impressive scene I’ve ever met. I like sunflower because it always wings up to the sun, and that refresh me.

向日葵, sonneblume, zonnebloem, tournesol

Hi-mawari, sunflower in Japanese, means little interesting, because it indicates a flower that turns around toward the sun’s movement. Sunflower is litterary a flower of the sun, a shape of which reminds of the sun flaire. In English, German, Dutch,,, the attention takes at flower’s shape, however, Asian such as Chinese, Japanese and Latins such as Italian, French, they see the movement of this flower and name after it.

Italin film, “I Gilsoli”, shot many beautiful sunflowers veiws. Italian director Vittorio De sica might want to represent the sunflower as people of desperate fate due to a war. He inserted lots of sunflower field cuts. They steals, doesn’t move. If he were northern European, his metapher would have the strong will as the sun-shining-flower. Italian gilasoli is the “moving along the sun”. So, I assume that he might represent the sunflower as the fate played by the war, unescapable recruting and another life afterwards like the sunflower turns its face along with the sun’s unchangable moving, the sun is a country as the fate generator, and the sunflower is us.

Some says in Korea a flattery is called sunflower. It is suprised that sunflower keeps a negative meaning. Only young sunflowers turns their face along with the sun’s move. So Korean means might the unrestness in youth. please let me know, anyone knows this things.
