      It’s quite easy to do on isometric paper. Then you can trace it.

    I use ordinary pencils for sketching, but because I like to use pen for designs like this and tattoo designs I use fine line pens.. The brand name is ZIG.. Their a good brand because their pens don't bleed and make a mess like most other brands out there...

    when I was 13 I was terrible at art.one time we had an art competition so I went into the 6th formers common room and found a drawing of this penrose steps and I erased the name and put mine on it.when the day came my teacher told the whole class what I did.i never looked at the back of the paper as the students full name was written on it and the year 1995 was on it too.the class laughed for months after.

      Now en Français. Pourriez-vous me dire le titre de la musique et le nom de l'interprète que l'on entend en regardant la vidéo de Jonathan Harris "How to draw a Penrose Staircase" . Vous l'avez regardé il y a 2 mois.
      Thank's,
