Let me invite you into a delicate world where music meets the gentle play of nature’s light. Whispers Through Light – Silhouette Sonata No.4 was born from the wistful imagery of Emily Dickinson’s poetry — especially her lines about shadows moving across sunlit parlours. I envisioned what forgotten pages of music might look like bathed in winter’s pale afternoon light, soft branches brushing against a timeworn score.

This piece was created using genuine antique sheet music sourced from 1900s European collections. On this historic canvas, I layered mixed media silhouettes of bare, whispering branches, as if a garden’s ghost had wandered into a music room. Each stroke was placed with care to honour both the age-softened paper and the story it carried.

Who is it for?
Perfect for those who cherish:
Nature’s fleeting moments
Vintage aesthetics with soul
Music history intertwined with visual art
Slow living, romantic decor enthusiasts
Thoughtful, one-of-a-kind art for gifting

Where & how to display it?
Here are five enchanting ideas:
Above a piano — to echo the piece’s musical roots
In a reading nook — a quiet companion for reflective afternoons
As part of a vintage gallery wall — bringing texture and storytelling
In a bedroom — for a serene, nature-soaked atmosphere
As a unique office feature — a poetic escape in your workspace
This artwork invites stillness and reverie into any space it touches.
