How to draw a rose in stages?

Rose flower. How beautiful this flower is, representing love and devotion! The flower symbolism of the rose goes into the depths of history. After all, in ancient times people made different bouquets and gave them to each other as a sign of love and respect. So one donated rose was equated with a heartfelt confession. At that time, as the twelve roses, according to biblical traditions, symbolized a strong love for life.

This tendency to express feelings and emotions with the help of floral compositions has survived to this day: in Paris and Rome, in Moscow and Amsterdam, instead of a thousand words people give each other these insanely beautiful flowers.
