Simple Spiral Blossom

Each of these naive drawings started off as a simple spiral.

I can't draw so I created this type of flower to use when I need to embellish my craft or art works.

It's very easy, so follow me.

[Note] I have delibrately left the drawing, as is, to show how to draw "casualy" till you get the look.
Then you can neaten and generally clean up your image.

Step 1: Spiral

TOOLS: Pencil and Paper.

Draw a simple spiral in freehand, It can be quite "wobbly" it will be ok.

[Note] I am using pens to show you, more clearly, how it's done.

This is really effective... I always struggle with rose drawings; I'll have to try this. Thanks for the ideas:)

Thanks for your comment. I didn't call them roses because I thought that would be too presumptious.

Wow! These are beautiful! Roses are always really hard to draw and this makes it gorgeously simple!

My pleasure. I draw every day but they tend to be very abstract. Please have a look at all my posts to see what I mean. (I mean the pictures posted amongst my comments and one of my Ibles. Art >.How colour affects your mood) . craftyv
