Funeral
The illustration on this sympathy card captures the quiet, reflective mood of an early morning along the Surrey Quays waterfront, when mist softens the docks and colours blur into one another. From the lower edge, slender stems of umbelliferous wildflowers rise in loose clusters, painted in gauzy layers of violet, muted blue, and cool grey-green. Each flower head is a delicate canopy of dots and fine lines, so light and lace-like that they appear almost weightless, like seed heads swaying gently in a river breeze. The background is a gentle watercolour wash, soft and hazy, with no sharp edges-just flowing gradients of purple, lilac, and silvery tones that suggest a distant landscape out of focus. Transparent butterflies move among the blossoms, their pale wings barely traced, adding a sense of tender motion and quiet companionship. There is a tactile softness to the overall scene, as if you could reach out and brush past the feathery blooms the way you might skim your fingers over flowers in a sympathy bouquet resting in a calm home near Canada Water. The muted palette and light-filled composition evoke calm, understanding, and a sense of being gently held through sorrow. Like the most thoughtful condolence flowers we prepare for families around Surrey Quays, this card relies on subtlety and grace rather than grandeur, offering a visual embrace that honours loss while also whispering of healing and hope.
