Color Shapers are perfect for impasto and sgraffito painting techniques. They have a firm but flexible tip made from silicone, which you use to push paint around (they obviously don't absorb paint like a brush). Colour Shapers are also useful for blending pastels. They're available five different shapes and sizes, and three different degrees of firmness.

For more information, check out the Colour Shapers manufacturer's website.
