Funeral
The illustration on this sympathy card carries the stillness of a calm morning over Nunhead's rooftops, when the light is soft and the world speaks in hushed tones. Slender, wiry stems rise from the base of the card, each topped with an umbelliferous bloom shaped like a small, intricate umbrella of tiny florets. These flower heads are depicted in fine, lace-like detail, shaded in gentle violets, dusky blues, and misty greens that blend seamlessly into one another. The petals and seeds at the tips of each umbel seem almost weightless, giving the impression that a small gust of wind might set them trembling. Behind this cluster of wildflowers, the background is washed in translucent layers of lavender and pale, silvery green, evoking a distant meadow softened by morning fog. A couple of delicate butterflies drift among the stems, their wings only lightly outlined, suggesting souls in motion or quiet blessings passing through. The entire composition is open and uncluttered, with plenty of breathing room, like a thoughtful pause between shared memories after a funeral gathering in Nunhead. Nothing is sharp or jarring; the edges are softened, the colours muted, and the forms gently curved, allowing the mind to settle. From the perspective of a local florist, accustomed to helping families choose sympathy flowers that speak without shouting, this design feels deeply appropriate. It offers visual solace through nature's quiet forms and cool, calming tones, making it an elegant choice for expressing heartfelt condolences and support to someone grieving nearby.
