Piano, Big & Grand!

Wallpaper Description:

I've just created 6 piano designs, & this is one of them.

I made all of these designs from recent photographs of an upright piano that I shot from a tall staircase directly above the instrument. The two designs with black backgrounds are the actual black color of the piano. (I colored the white keys in, of course.)

All 6 of these wallpapers have this in common: the colors of the keys. (It's a bit hard to tell what's what in the "Music in Action" fractal design, because some of the keys in it are backwards.)

Here is the note color key:

A's are brown
B's are lavender
C's are red
D's are yellow
E's are a warm blue
F's are orange
G's are green

(I had to leave the sharp and flat keys black, or it wouldn't have looked like a piano!)

The reason that I kept the colors of the keys constant was because these are the colors I see when I hear these musical notes. To me, the note of D will always be yellow, whether I hear it on a piano, a violin, or a guitar. Most of the sharp/flat keys have colors similar to the keys they are beside. For example, I hear the B flat key as a deep violet color.

I hope all of you who love and appreciate music (and who doesn't!) will enjoy these designs!

C is red, and E is blue, and G is green..., yeah that's about right...Do Re Me Fa So La Ti Dooooo...... I feel a song coming on.

Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with A-B-C
When you sing you begin with do-re-mi

Do-re-mi, do-re-mi
The first three notes just happen to be
Do-re-mi, do-re-mi

[Maria:]
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
[spoken]
Let's see if I can make it easy

Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do (oh-oh-oh)

I like this one "Big & Grand" the best because it looks like I'm sitting in front of the keyboard. I can't read music, nor do I know what the keys are, but if I was to play it would be garbage! I can't play any instrument.... fv+26,000
