Description
Music 1 – a blue that reflects itself
Wall art rehearses the upper half of a panoramic canvas in the lower across a horizontal seam through deep cobalt and ultramarine — abstract painting whose beat really is the nearest thing here to music.
Technique and texture
The colour is laid in several layers and dusted in places with a fine silver material that catches light. The seam at the middle is the most raised part of the picture, where the load gathers into a ridge. The lower half is painted more fluidly, with vertical runs that support the sense of reflection.
The motif
The upper half is darker, with black nests along the top edge and two pale pink verticals. A bright, almost white cloud marks the middle. The lower half repeats that arrangement in a softer, more dispersed form, with more white toward the right edge. The left and right edges are the darkest passages and close the picture in.
Setting and placement
The seam wants to sit level with the eye, because the whole reflection depends on meeting it straight. Deep blue settles a room and goes with pale timber and white walls; the silver dust is what stops it going flat under artificial light.

Music 1 in a panoramic format
Music 1, in cobalt and ultramarine, is painted in 19 landscape sizes, from 60 x 30 to 340 x 170 cm. Pick the width from the furniture underneath and allow roughly two thirds, so 130 x 65 or 140 x 70 cm over a 200 cm sofa, 110 x 55 or 120 x 60 cm over a 160–180 cm bed, 120 x 60 cm over a 180 cm dining table. A long hallway or an empty living-room wall can carry 200 x 100 or 240 x 120 cm. Hang the horizontal seam at eye level, since both blue halves mirror each other across it.
For Music 1 ready to hang, choose YES under Stretcher – the canvas with its silver dust then arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher. A frame is not part of Music 1, but you can pick one in the Frame menu, which starts at Without frame. Delivery of Music 1 takes 15–45 days. The deep blue, the pale pink verticals and the raised seam are hand-painted on canvas, so this painting is not a print.
What do buyers ask about Music 1?
Which size of Music 1 works above a dining table?
Over a 180 cm table choose 120 x 60 cm, over a longer 240 cm table 160 x 80 cm, so the blue seam runs parallel to the tabletop.
How does Music 1 arrive if I choose YES under Stretcher?
The cobalt blue canvas is stretched on a wooden stretcher before it ships, so at home you only hang it on the wall.
How long will I wait for Music 1 at 200 x 100 cm?
At 200 x 100 cm delivery is 15–45 days, the same as for all 19 sizes of Music 1.
Can I get Music 1 in a size that is not on the list?
If your wall needs a measurement outside the 19 sizes from 60 x 30 to 340 x 170 cm, ask us about a painting made to order.
