For my final notes there are 3 divisions, 1hour, 4hour and 12hour. These are represented in buddhist type with the mayan numeric system below. I have also used two stock choices which are connected via a wax seal. The thinner stock has been plated with gold leaf to give the note a look of expense and worth. The wax seal has also been finished with a layer of gold leaf to make the markings stand out from the red wax. The typography has been applied with a traditional Japanese brush pen and then two toned with a metallic silver brush ben. The other type has been consistently applied using ink and press techniques informed by the Lino Cutter. To finish, each note has a different symbolic image drawn with fine liner, these include Japanese Koy Carp, Bamboo Sticks and Plum Blossoms.
