Roses are always a popular subject in creative painting. It’s easy to see why though as they are elegant, beautiful and inspiring. I’m not into gardening and haven’t a clue how to look after one, but I do admire beautiful gardens. I am currently preapring for another session of painting and roses are the main subject. I have collected a few references to share with you all to enjoy. 

 My paintings don’t do these beautiful flowers justice but I am a beginner as far as painting roses is concerned, and I do enjoy it. However, as the saying goes “practice makes perfect”, so that is what I must do.

I don’t know the names of each type of rose which is a pity.

I do hope you enjoy looking at these beautiful roses.

Ciao for now,

Elena
