 * Analysis Questions:**

What is a digital substrate and how do digital photographers use them?

 * A digital substrate is something used to print photographs on like fabric, metal, different types of paper, and gel.
 * Digital photographers use them to create texture and emotion within their piece of artwork

 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?) ======
 * Using a substrate is one type of process that could be used. Another is using altered art like in the second and third picture. Using digital transferring is another process that could be used as well.

 Explain 3 new things you learned through this research about how to print and take photographs.

 * I learned that you can print on metal which is really cool and different.
 * I also learned that you can transfer images on gel
 * You can also use clay as a substrate and I never would have thought of using that before.

Which of the artists' works did you admire most and why?

 * I really like John Paul Caponigro because his pieces are very magical and make me wonder how that is even possible like the floating rocks and the first picture shown above.

Did you discover someone not mentioned?

 * I didn't discover anyone new.

How will this effect your work as an artist?  What places are you thinking about creating a portrait of and why? What mood do you hope to evoke through your photographs of this place?  Which of the three techniques do you plan to use for your project? What non-digital art techniques will you use? (drawing, painting, art metals, printmaking, sculpture, sewing, hand-made books, altered book etc)
 * I will use different printing strategies now
 * I might take photographs of places I have memories with, both good and bad memories.
 * A sentimental mood that could be mysterious too.
 * I want to use altered art and substrates with this project by creating a collage or book that has a special meaning behind it. I liked the Idea of a portfolio that I found in a book.
 * I will draw and paint possibly. I might try and sew different fabrics together to make a collage or book for the final piece of artwork.
