Music Theory Prints

Hand-illustrated chalkboard art by Nathaniel Santa Cruz.

Music Theory Chalkboard: A comprehensive reference guide for musicians of all levels; perfect for homeschooling, practice rooms, classrooms, and music enthusiasts alike!

As musicians, Lisa and I struggled to find music theory diagrams that were easy to read, beautiful to look at, and comprehensive enough to be useful while learning music or playing a new piece. So I designed and illustrated this to not only aid my composition of music for the Wondergarten curriculum, but to represent each element with natural features to be easily understood, and of course — beautiful.

In this illustration, all the essential elements of music theory are represented in one stunning work of art. Including the diatonic and pentatonic scales, a complete note value chart, a color-coded grand staff with examples of common time signatures, scale degree names, and the circle of fifths with corresponding key signatures.

This beautiful piece of artwork can also be printed on premium museum-quality Giclee paper and framed in a gorgeous dark walnut frame, ready for displaying! Options include matted or non-matted. *Please note that the non-matted framed artwork print includes a white border, but it is not an actual mat.

Giclee paper is a thick (21-mil) heavy-weight (310g) paper with the luxurious style of traditional artists' papers. It has a natural white, matte finish with a textured watercolor feel, ideal for fine-art reproductions, especially for chalkboard illustrations.
