Brush Whiskers

The design is for steadying your hand while painting or drawing. It allows the artist to rest their paint brush or pencil on the page while keeping the tip off the canvas, until a small amount of pressure is applied. It is called a brush whiskers as they allow the artist to feel the page a bit like a cats whiskers.
