**Answer the following: **

What is a digital substrate and how do digital photographers use them? The surface that an artist makes a print to. They use them when they want to print onto a surface other than printing paper. What are the 3 directions that this project could take? (hint there are 3 kinds of processes used to do this sort of work, what are they?) Digital printing processes, altered art and image transfer. Explain 3 new things you learned through this research about how to print and take photographs. 1.While printing, you have to paint on a layer in order for the substrate to take to the ink. 2.Make sure when you transfer your image that its wet so it transfers. hint: transfer imediately. 3.When using the acrylic gel, if you use too much medium it may slip around, which is bad for image quality. Which of the artists' works did you admire most and why? I really enjoyed J.P.C.'s photographs. The places he's been are unbelievable.

I need to find places that are simply stunning and beautiful, not just average. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,'times new roman',times,serif;">What places are you thinking about creating a portrait of and why? <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">I want to create a portrait of my aunt and uncles lake home because its so peaceful and beautiful. Also I want to take a hike to this hilly valley where my aunt and uncle took me and my brother to fly kites. It was just so peaceful and serenity was all around us. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,'times new roman',times,serif;">What mood do you hope to evoke through your photographs of this place? <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Peacefulness and I want my admirers to be shocked by the wow factor my shots will produce. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,'times new roman',times,serif;">Which of the three techniques do you plan to use for your project? <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">I'm not exactly sure yet because it kind of depends on the portraits I take of my places. Probably a collage of some sort, so altered art and image transfer to a kind of fabric because I love the texture of the cloth and it gives a texture which will enhance the quality of my portrait. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,'times new roman',times,serif;">What non-digital art techniques will you use? (drawing, painting, art metals, printmaking, sculpture, sewing, hand-made books, altered book etc) <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,'times new roman',times,serif;">Maybe painting because my place(s) are going to be peaceful so if I use paint to create hmm.. like a border of a paisley type, or a wave design I have in mind it will add more of the beauty factor.
