Paper Stump is a cylindrical drawing tool made of soft paper tightly wound into a stick, designed to make blending dusty media like charcoal and pastels much easier and cleaner. It is perfect for shading and working with darker areas created by pencils, charcoal, and oil pastels. The stump effectively blurs large areas when using the side or highlights lines when using the tip. When the points wear down or the paper stump gets dirty, they can be easily cleaned and re-pointed using our sandpaper board.
