Detail can be added to objects that are closer to you.



 Alternative to cutting out circles from other paper.
You can trace circles onto your paper and magnify the area with a detail of your surroundings. 


Using Visual Perspective techniques will add depth to your landscape. 
Try using softer pressure and less detail when you draw the background landscape to make it appear further away. 
Add harder pressure and more detail to the larger foreground object.
