Roses have such a beautiful structure to them. As buds, they are very strong. Those overlapping petals provide great strength to protect the bud until it is ready to open. Then, once it does open, the petals unfurl and show their beauty.

This is Jeremy. Rose is my mom. It is a very good rose. I love it. I love the color red you used. why did you draw a rose? You colored the background very good.

Jeremy, thank you for your nice comments and thank you for coming to my blog. I drew a rose because I think they are beautiful flowers and I think the rose, in particular, is a symbol of strength.
