About Japanese Kumano Kodo 主要功能：日曆

書冊文字：日本有好多古道，例如奥州街道、東海道、山陽街道、熊野古道、長崎街道同埋美濃路。設計師以呢啲為主題，創作咗一本色彩繽紛嘅企業日曆。呢本繽紛日曆以當地嘅節慶同文化作為設計主題。當中，熊野古道由大約公元908年起就用作前往熊野嘅朝聖之路，直到今日仍然有人使用。佢更係聯合國教科文組織嘅世界遺產。

Unique Properties: I drew an illustration for a corporate calendar (Nippon Paint) with the motif of an old Japanese highway.
There are many old roads in Japan such as Oshu Highway, Tokaido, Sanyo Highway, Kumano Kodo, Nagasaki Highway and Minoji. With these themes, we have created a colorful corporate calendar (Nippon Paint). Among them, the Kumano Kodo is located in the center of Japan and was used by the Kumano worship (a place of nature worship) since the Heian period (around 908), and is still maintained by people (also used as a living road). It is a highway that is carefully used. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004.
I finished it in one picture with the motif of "Nachi Fire Festival" and "Nachi Falls" which are the festivals of Kumano Shrine that live in life.
Dimensions & Packaging: Calendar (6 sheets spelled) / 420 mm x 595 mm
Production Technology: Illustration board Hand-drawn illustrations with acrylic paint
