To draw a simple rose, start by drawing an elongated circle (a squished circle). Then add two lines from the left and right sides going downward, not touching but slightly tilted inward. Connect these lines at the bottom with a curved line to form a cylinder-like shape. Next, draw a semicircle inside the main circle, like a sun setting over the horizon. Add curved lines over the semicircle that intersect, then close the gap with a connecting line. These lines form the core of the rose. From there, add petals around the core by drawing two lines extending outward from the core and connect them with a curving line, giving dimension by varying the curves. Finish by drawing a stem with two lines extending downward and a leaf or two on the side. You can add shading for depth if desired. This approach provides a clear, step-by-step method to a simple rose drawing.
