- Pour small amounts of black and Trompe Red onto palette. Dip one stencil brush into Trompe Red and blot off onto paper towel. Use a circular motion to apply paint to cut outs of stencil. Dip another stencil brush into black. Dab on paper towel. Apply to edges of cut outs and shade design to create depth (figure A). Remove stencil and let dry.
