Drawingstraws is a selection method used by a group to choose one person to do a task when no one has volunteered for it. The same practice could also be used to choose one of several volunteers should an agreement not be reached. The group leader takes a number of straws or similar long cylindrical objects, and makes sure one of them is physically shorter than the rest. He then grabs all the straws in his fist such that all of them appear to be of the same length. The leader then offers the clenched fist to the group. Each member of the group draws a straw from the fist. At the end of the offering, the person with the shortest straw is the one who must do the task. This practice is immortalized in the clich drawing the short straw, meaning to be randomly, unluckily, or unfairly selected to perform a task or suffer some penalty.

It is used by artists to smudge or blend marks made with charcoal , Cont crayon , pencil or other drawing media. By its use, gradations and half tones can be produced. Stumps are typically made of paper but can also be made of felt or leather . They are sold commercially in a range of sizes suitable for manipulations covering large areas, for operations on a miniature scale, and those in between. Technique When blending, a stump is held at an angle to increase the surface area that contacts the paper. The tip of the stump must be kept clean while blending in light toned areas of a drawing, so as to not smear darker media from other areas onto it. Eventually the tool will become dull from use sandpaper pointers are often used to clean and re sharpen it. While similar effects can be produced by smudging with one s fingers, this deposits oil from the skin onto the drawing surface, making the surface less receptive to the charcoal or other drawing medium.
