POWWOW POSTER ART © GBALLARD 2001 All Rights Reserved Photo, Scan, Photoshop, Quark -- All Creative & Production by G. BALLARD -- Gary Ballard delivered finished printed posters to the powwow head staff for release. Commercial artist GARY G. BALLARD produced this colorful professional pow-wow poster of a contemporary Nez Perce tribal dancer for a Southern California Indian Native American gathering on a San Diego County Indian reservation. Gary Ballard took the picture using medium-format color negative film, scanned it into Adobe Photoshop, spent considerable time in Photoshop enhancing it for a total commercial presentation, laid out the design in Quark Express, and hired a San Diego printing company to print and package the posters. G. BALLARD then delivered the printed pow-wow posters on the reservation to promote the cultural event. SYCUAN POSTER POWWOW POSTER 2001, 17x27 inches.

POWWOW MAGAZINE COVER:

Ballard delivered film and match print of the magazine cover to the pow-wow director.

TRIBAL MODELS:

Alexis Tucker, 9, and Raymond "Swift Hawk" Sandoval Jr., 8, both Indian children are Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation band members, and participated in Sycuan's 12th Annual Powwow, September 10, 2001.

Looking back from 2026 -- it's amazing young Ray and Alexis were when you see them pictured with adults for scale in the last photos below.

MAGAZINE FULL-PAGE LAYOUT:

I produced a fun montage of the powwow from the pervious year that the casino ran full page in black and white in their powwow magazines released during their pow-wow promotions.

This is how they generally looked -- I didn't spend a lot of time making commercial-grade artwork -- but just enough creative to make a good memory scrapbook montage of the tribal event for the band members:
