How To Paint My Roses

As promised my basic step by step of how I paint my roses.  For the most part this is how I do it and not necessarily a teaching you to paint tutorial.

I have a new tutorial posted...CLICK HERE

And a new video...PAINT PRETTY PINK ROSES

These are the layers of strokes to build a rose, so we are assuming you know how to double load a brush and your basic comma strokes, u strokes, etc.

I start with basing in the basic circular shape in the size of rose I want. I am not particular on them being prefect, just a general circular shape.

  1. Pamela,
    Beautiful roses. Loved the tutorial~you make it look so easy (but I know better) I have yet to perfect the rose. Sometimes mine turn out looking pretty good and other time they look oh so sad. I've noticed that it really depends on my mood and if I "see" the rose in my head. Does that make sense?
    I have a couple of friends that can paint just about any rose, sure wish I had their talent. Seeing your post has inspired me not to give up.
    Beautiful sign that you did~Love it!

  3. Thanks so much for sharing your technique! I think your roses are just great and I'm going to follow your steps and try it, but in the past I haven't been able to make one look nice. Do you reload for each stroke, or does each loading do a few strokes? Thanks again, Pam!

    1. I would say my favorite brushes are the Loew Cornell 7300 series. I use mostly the flats but I also use some filberts. My favorite sizes in the flats are the 12 and 10. And in the filberts 6, 8.
