About Sea and Sky
The sea and sky blend into one continuous tapestry that wraps around the piano, combining an underwater world with atmospheric light. Ocean creatures swim through a sea of stars. Clouds on the back of the piano flow into jellyfish on the sides. Underneath the keyboard is a view that could be either coral under watery moonlight, or cacti under wispy clouds.
