Funeral
This sympathy card presents a serene, nature-inspired scene that feels as gentle as an early morning walk through the quieter corners of Sands End. Slender wildflower stems, the type of umbellifer blooms you might see nodding along a riverside path, rise gracefully from the bottom edge of the card. Their heads are painted in delicate clusters of violet, dusky blue, and gentle lavender, each tiny floret suggesting both fragility and quiet strength. Around them, a soft veil of watercolour washes spreads in layers of muted purple, silvery green, and misty grey, creating a hazy, almost dreamlike background. The edges of the colours blur like distant trees seen through light drizzle, giving the sense of a world wrapped in stillness and reflection. Between the stems, transparent butterflies drift, their pale wings barely traced, as though caught mid-flight in a tender breeze. They add a whisper of movement, hinting at transformation and the continuation of life beyond loss. The light within the illustration is calm and even, without stark shadows, echoing the soothing glow you might notice near the river by Wandsworth Bridge as the day slowly begins. Every element of the composition-the fine lines of the stems, the feathery texture of the umbels, the cool, powdery palette-works together to create a feeling of understanding and gentle support. This card would sit beautifully beside a simple condolence bouquet delivered locally, adding a layer of thoughtful artistry and heartfelt sympathy that words alone sometimes cannot fully convey.
