How do I remove white out from paper?

Question

I have a piece of artwork that I created many years ago that has spot of white out on it, is there anyway to remove it without damaging the paper?

Answer 1

um, its kind of nearly impossible to do so.

but if its thick enough, you could gently bend the paper to create a curve and scrape it off with a sharp object.  

Answer 2

Hi, I'm an Artist too with several years of experience as a retoucher as well. TheJoblessSpoon's idea would work great I think, if the medium were a thicker or stronger one such as board or canvas.I fear that it would rip a whole in paper though.I would try tearing off a small piece of fine sandpaper. Lay the artwork over your index finger to bend the paper without creasing it. Then with feather-light pressure, sand the spot being carefull not to sand the surrounding area or through the paper.You may have to bend the tiny piece of sandpaper as well for acurracy.Hope it go's well!
