Everything you have done to the notebook paper must be recreated using the illusion of the Trompe L'oeil method.
MAKE THEM LOOK IDENTICAL.
1. Begin by tracing the exterior shape of your manipulated paper onto your blank drawing paper then cut it out.
2. By measuring, observing and using your notebook paper as a guide you will make your blank paper look exactly like your altered notebook paper.
3. Use colored pencils, graphite for shading, scissors and rulers to create your Trompe L'oeil illusion. Be sure to draw your pencil lines very lightly. You do not want the pencil to show through under the colored pencil.
