In the following watercolor painting video, Artist Debi Watson shares her techniques for doing just that.

How To Paint a Rose in Watercolor Step By Step – Part 2

I have started with the painting.

Here is a photo of the drawing. As you can see, the detail is not very good. I am sorry.

I have worked a bit more on this rose painting. I darkened the leaves more around the buds. I did this with using sap green, alizarin crimoson and phthalo blue. I mixed the colours on my palette. I also added some of the rose colour on the leaves, as I described this Part V. Then I removed the masking fluid of the first rose, because I do not like to leave the masking fluid on the painting too long. I am fearful that if I leave the masking fluid on the paper too long, I will not be able to remove it, so I simply removed it.

I worked on the leaves more. I added more depth to them with a mix of alizarin crimson, phthalo blue and sap green. I also added more colour here and there to the roses. I also began painting some of the stems. Here I have started with an underlayer of indian yellow and then I added a wash of sap green and then I added alizarin crimson. I still have to paint some leaves, then I can finally with the stamens and adding the background. I love how this painting looks so far – hopefully you are liking it as well.

I have done the next step. Although I have not worked on all stamens yet, I did more work on the background. I was too curious to see how it would look.
