WELCOME!

Welcome to my Photography, Design, and Everything Else blog. I am a photographer for fun (meaning I don't know too much of what I am doing) and an aspiring graphic design artist. I have always been somewhat interested in photography but really started getting more into it after I had my son. Last Christmas I got my first Sony SLR Camera and the world of photography hasn't been the same since. I still don't know too much but the fact that I can now take some clear pictures works good enough for me. Upon following a few photography blogs I started to realize that even if you don't take a perfect photo, you can create one through photo editing. DUH! I started to become interested and learning new things through video tutorials. This re-sparked a interest I always had for graphic design. I dont have much time to go back to school right now so I have been self-teaching myself as much as I can. Since then I have begun to make flyers, business cards, and magazine ads for the store/dispensery 4ever20. I started this blog as a way to share some of my work with the world and so you can follow along on my learning journey to not only become a better photographer but graphic design artist as well. Along the way I will also be sharing whatever else I think I need to at the time. ENJOY!

4ever20 the store

>> Saturday, September 26, 2009

So in the front of 4ever20 there is a store. As you know I get most of my graphic design practice making all the flyers, magazine ads, and business cards for them. In the beginning the front of the store was pretty cool but nothing was getting sold. They decided to get some more things in that people would want to buy and I have to say that things are coming along great. I made another flyer for them but just to promote the front of the store.



This is the front of the flyer. I went to the store and I took some pictures and this creation is from the wall that is painted inside the store. I dont know what those things are but I like to guess worms or bugs of some sort. Obviously smoking and the smoke says 4ever20. I thought it's be cool to put on the front. I like this picture on the flyer becuase it looks it could have been drawn on or for the flyer specifically and not a painting on the wall. My wonderful photo skills. The front picture is the front of the store so customers know what to look or when driving. Inside the store there is lettering across the top that says SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL ARTIST. There are some paintings hung around the store for sale that friends have made. There are also shirts designed by Artist EVAN YORK. Some of the pieces for sale are also made by a friend Michelle [from Lehr & Black] and are available at her online store SHOP LOVE ME. 4ever20 likes to promote upcoming artists/friends in the area.



This is the back of the Flyer. The three pictures of pictures of some of the items being sold in the store. There is some really cute stuff in there so if you live in the area you should visit. You do not have to be a patient of the dispensery to come and shop in the front of the store which is the cool part.

I just noticed the front of the flyer has the address wrong. Luckily this has not been printed and sent out yet so I have time to fix it.

Correct address:
15149 Ventura Blvd, Sherman Oaks CA
