 The paper stump makes the difficult job of blending dusty media such as charcoal and pastel much easier and cleaner. Once the stumps get dirty and the points wear down they can be easily cleaned and re-pointed using a sandpaper block. Derwent paper stumps can be found individually or in a handy pack of 3 sizes ranging in diameter from 5.5mm to 10.5mm. The paper stumps are made from compressed rice paper and with a point at each end.




 This eraser takes your drawings to another level and creates specific highlights in coloured pencil drawings of animal fur and foliage.  Used quickly and lightly – in a stroking or dabbing action – it can lighten without removing all colour. If you you then work back over the erased area it’s possible to create a complex texture of optical colours.  The eraser works quickly over large areas and makes light work of rubbing out.
