When you draw flowers you will also have to note how their leaves are formed although it is not entirely necessary to have leaves as a support for the flower. Their shapes are basincall oval
Looking at most flowers from above, you will notice they mostly have a round shape but if you look at them from an angle you will see they are oval in shape. Look at these examples here.

How To Draw Flowers - Follow These Simple Steps  These are the very basic shapes you will find in any type of flower. Start off with a simple freehand drawing of an oval or a roundish shape as shown here. You can start off with a dot right in the middle of your oval. All shapes in your flower will go out from this dot.
 Step One
Draw a circle which will be used as a guideline only so it does not matter if it is not perfect. Then draw a tiny circle in the middle and another circle as shown here. When drawing, use a swift movement with your hand which will give you much better results and your drawing will look better.
 Step Two
Now you divide the circle into five parts as you can see in this drawing. It looks a little like a wheel but that is okay as these lines are only to guide you. Remember, everything goes outwards from this central point which applies to any type of flower. Notice also that most of these 'daisies' have only fice petals.
 Step Three
Now make a heavier (thicker) line and follow your guidelines. Make the outside part of the petal wavy and draw a small point to show the tip of the petal. Keep your pencil really sharp for a crisp, clean drawing and use a soft rubber to erase any lines
 Step Four
Now we are going to work on the circle in the middle. These are petals that curve over towards the middle of the flower. First draw a small line halfway between the outer petals these do not have to be exact, just approximately. See if you can get it similar to the drawing shown here.
 Step Five
Now erase all the guidelines and your drawing should look something like this. You see, anyone can draw flowers if you follow these How To Draw Flowers in this series. It really is quite easy to do.
