Step-by-Step Instructions for Drawing a Black and White Rose
How to Draw a Great Looking Black and White Rose for Kids and Beginners - Step 1
1. Begin the black and white rose outline by sketching the stem. First, use a pair of long, "S" shaped curved lines to sketch the primary stem. At the bottom, allow the lines to meet at a point.
Draw pairs of curved lines extending from the sides of the stem to create smaller twigs.
At the tip of one twig, use curved lines that meet at points to outline the sepals - small leaves that grow beneath every flower.
