I am really sorry for not writing before, so I will instead make one entry for the last three lessons. First I will explain the unit, where the major goal was to create a clock which represents or have aspects which relates to time within it. I chose to create one representing music, since music has been present throughout times. In the 20s people listened to Jazz and now people listen do dubstep, something representing that tie\mes change. There are also different music epochs. In my artwork I wanted to portray the song 'The final countdown' because it portraits the aspects shown above.

During the first lesson I did not do much, but I glued pieces of balsa wood together to make the backboard of my artwork. I used glue and other balsa wood pieces to glue it together. I then painted the front side white which would be the background colour of my artwork. I can't really say anything more than the results were okay.

In the next lesson I finally started to create my artwork. In the background of the artwork I would have the notes for the final countdown. I used ages to manage to create the notes and did one of the biggest mistakes: one of my set of lines had six and not five! This was a big mistake. I also decided to use ink and not paint for the notes. This took most of the lesson.

In the previous lesson I decided to form my artwork as a shield, to represent the power of time. I used knives, saw and sandpaper to form the shape. The results were quite good. When I finished with this I drew the last notes. The results were quite good, but for next time I would improve my quality of note drawing. In the next lesson I will do the last details.

Here's a picture of me working.
