I would like to see more! This looks great, especially for a first attempt.
Good Morning from Greece!
Thank you very much! I will try it again. I did 4 different versions yesterday from slightly different angles.

And here is a photo of the shoot.

Are you just using a light box underneath?
I’ve never tried a shot like that with the paper, something I’ll have to look into.
Thanks again!

No it is not a lightbox.
Basically I'm lucky because of my kitchen's table design.
On the table surface are two square openings, on from each side, and inside them feet pieces of square glass with mat finish.
I placed on a chair an anti mosquito blue led light and an IKEA flexible white led lamp. I put the chair under the opening and that's was all.
It looked nice!
The funny thing is that when you look at photo it looks like it is unreal. And although you get this impression, the photo is 100% real and with minimal post processing. I adjusted a bit the highlights and blacks, added a little bit contrast and reduced slightly the blues.

Oh that works out really well. I’ll have to post a pic of my setup. It’s literally a piece of glass from a frame raised by 4 soda cans. Super low cost, but it works!

I like to experiment and also to see improvisations of set up, by other people. You can do nice things with low budget.

Awesome result for your first attempt. Wonderful fading colors with all these curved lines. I really love the result.
Just one idea how you can improve the result a bit.

I would hide the paper ends if possible. But that's just the icing on the cake!

Yes you have a point here but it is a mater of preference.
I like it though because it breaks the linearity of the curves. It wasn't difficult to make them invisible.
I did more today in the morning but in different style. I haven't processed them yet though.
