I prefer to draw outline with pencil the start with painting over it. So I chose a sample picture found in internet and drew with pencil.

For painting, it is better to start with outer environment apart from the main object (here Lotus). So I wanted to paint the leaves floating around in water and the water in deep grey(not fully black) and use light grey for reflections over the water.

And for rose, the outer brown environment.

For leaves floating in water (around the lotus), I used SAP green as the main colour. And for the veins over the leaf, I use greenery green.

And for the veins over the leaf, I use greenery green.

For pond water, I am using dark grey that is I mixed more black + little white and used the mix to the water layers.

For water droplet over the leaf surface, I used white marker pencil.

Here the main subject is the lotus for which I need pale pink/baby pink colour. So I mixed pink with white to attain the pale colour.

And for red rose, Crimson red for the full body and maroon for edges and smeared it at places.

To add additional details, I am using white colour to the bottom of the petals (for the lotus).

To add more attraction to the lotus petals, I am using a mix of Salmon pink + White and add fine layers to the corner of the petals as well veins to the petals.

And for the red rose, a maroon layer across the petals and leaves.

To the inner layer, I used grey over black rounds.

For the outer seed layer, I am using deep orange with outer circle of Dark brown.

For seed details, I add dots across the layer one by one with colours as below:
Maroon
SAP Green
Ivory or (lemon yellow + white)
Black
Crimson Red
Dark Brown

And for the inner seed I used dark brown for criss-cross lines and turquoise for the seeds as dots.

Golden yellow for the full body of the petals and bright orange, for the lines over it.

I used cerulean blue and sky blue for the sky, SAP green for leaves/stem. I also use Teal blue at the bottom of the sky blue clouds.

Here I also provide a link of my earlier work with Peacock:
