Ideal for toning, shading, and adding unique tones and textures to drawings and mixed media art, General's Graphite Powder is a pure, artist-quality powder that blends well with pencils, pastels, and other drawing tools. It's great for covering large areas and can be applied with chamois, fingers, or a cloth. Or use a brush to apply it as a wash. The jar contains 2.3 oz of pure powdered graphite.
