Funeral
The artwork on this sympathy card unfolds with the calm of an early walk along Green Lanes before the bustle of Palmers Green begins. Across the lower half, slender wildflower stems reach upwards, sketched with remarkable finesse in shades of violet, muted blue, and toned-down mauve. At their tips, the umbelliferous blooms unfurl into tiny, lace-like clusters, some rendered in clearer detail, others dissolving gently into the softly washed background. That background is a tranquil blend of watercolour, where silvery greens, cool purples, and soft blue-greys bleed into one another in subtle gradients, evoking distant gardens or parkland blurred by a veil of light mist. The overall texture feels like lightly brushed paper touched with diluted pigment, creating a sense of air and movement without any harsh lines. Scattered among the stems, gossamer butterflies flutter in mid-air, their wings indicated with minimal strokes, almost ghostlike, yet unmistakably present. They bring a note of transformation and ongoing presence that feels particularly suited to moments of loss. Light across the scene is even and tempered, with no deep shadows, giving the impression of a quietly overcast sky-gentle, reflective, and comforting. The palette stays firmly in cool, calming tones that naturally encourage the mind to slow and breathe. In our Palmers Green flower studio, we often choose such hues for sympathy tributes going to small family gatherings or local chapels, knowing that soft colours can say what words sometimes cannot. This card mirrors that intention: it doesn't shout its message but instead offers a visual space for reflection, a companion to your written condolences and the blooms you send to honour a life remembered.
