Annoying Media

Probably digital stuff. But that's because I don't have much experience with it. Maybe if I had photoshop I might change my mind.

I do like the look of digital however. It's awesome.

I adore scratchboard.
It's pretty much the only thing I did for half of my art classes.

I dislike pencil.
I prefer a bigger tip- which is why I also like charcoal, pastel and paint.

I'm not very fond of watercolor,digital or not.For me it dries too slow.I also find ink to be very annoying;I never have the correct line thickness and my pens bleed!

CLAY. Oil pastels. Charcoal.

I can't use Corel Painter.

Acrylics. I can just never get the paint to work for me. Maybe it's because I'm more of a mixed media/watercolor person. Or maybe it's because I just need a bit more practice at it...but really, for some reason it's just not as easy to use for me as oils (dries too fast and blends weirdly).

Stupid weird paint that won;t bend it's will to me... <_<

Tempera and watercolour. And clay. They never seem to work properly for me . . . .

I too have a grudge against the evil known as "Paint". :P

I always get so messy with those. My paintings just turn out like crap, with colours where they're not supposed to be. Laughing

Never really good at detail with painting either. Everything was just big blotches of colour.

On second thought, I take back what I said about digital stuff.

I do like to paint, I just don't like preparing for it. It always seems to take a while to get ready. But then, who doesn't like the look of real paint?

I used to adore markers until mine started dying, I can't afford new ones and all my pictures are slightly streaky if I use them now.

Chalk pencils I like if I mix them with other media, especially paint.
The same goes for pastels, I also like using them as a base with pencil over top for tiny details.

Colored pencils I have hated ever since I tried prismas (now until I get my own set of prismas I will hate colored pencils)

Paper mache: I hate the process, especially sanding, but I love the end result.

But, the one I truely do not like: oil. It is the only medium that has not turned out at least a little like I wanted my first try. Maybe once I work up the courage I'll try again.

Wow....I really don't have a hated medium...I feel left out....of course I'm not uber good in any either, I'm more of the "Jack of all trades, master of none"

OO!! I REMEMBER!!! I HATE SEWING MACHINES!!!

I hate [b]*any*[/b] media that you can't erase or correct easily. Especially ink and marker. At least in charcoal or paint, you can erase back out light spots or wait for it to dry and add a new layer of paint over the back spot. >.< I actually really like charcoal now (even though its hideously messy).

I'll stick to CG-ing though, thank you. [i]Ctrl+Z[/i] is my best friend.

Don't hate on the paint. :P

I hate charcoal and chalks, because I can't STAND they way they feel against the paper. It's like I'm rubbing two pieces of sandpaper together.

In my personal opinion, I think crayons are the worst. True, amazing artwork has come out of that as a result, but it's just plain aggravating for me to use, 'cause you can't really blend that well. Confused

Watercolors aren't that bad for me; it's only irritating if I drop a dark color on my picture (too much on brush) and I can't go back and fix it.

For me, it's mostly charcoals and chalk pastels. It's great when they smudge well intentionally, but when they smudge when you don't want them to (or [i]where[/i] you don't want them to), it's annoying. They also get [b]everywhere[/b] with the slightest blow of breath or wind.

I remember having a hard time with watercolor however I was the best in my class at using it. At first I hated it but I eventually grew to like it. I stopped using colored pencils two or three years ago so I lost my skill in that area. I was just trying color in with colored pencil yesterday and It came out terribly.
