Funeral
Opening this sympathy card feels like stepping into a quiet corner of nature on a calm New Addington evening. Against a soft wash of muted lavender, silvery green, and powdery blue, tall umbelliferous flowers stretch upwards, their stems drawn as fine, tapering lines that sway subtly from side to side. The flower heads resemble delicate lace, each cluster painted in diffused violets and gentle blues, with just enough detail to suggest individual petals without losing the dreamy, watercolour softness. Around them, a misty background spreads like a faint horizon, reminiscent of the light that settles over local green spaces after rain, when the air is cool and still. Transparent butterflies hover between the blooms, their wings just hinted at with pale outlines and light touches of colour, as though caught mid-flight in a tender breeze. The overall palette is hushed yet comforting, a blend of cool tones that soothe the eye and calm the heart, perfect for a condolence card offered to a neighbour near Central Parade or along King Henry's Drive. There is no clutter or harsh contrast-only a balanced dance of stems, blossoms, and gentle gradients that suggest continuity and quiet remembrance. The printed sympathy message, set above this tranquil meadow scene, feels like a soft-spoken companion to the artwork, inviting reflection rather than demanding it. As a florist used to creating thoughtful funeral tributes in New Addington, I see in this card a respectful way to convey support: a tender illustration that allows the recipient to pause, rest, and feel that they are not alone in their grief.
