Funeral
This sympathy card presents a tender piece of floral artwork that feels perfectly at home in the calm backstreets of Penge on a quiet, overcast day. The illustration is composed of fine, lace-like umbels and wildflower heads, painted in layered violets, dusky blues, and soft silver-green washes that bleed delicately into one another, as if the colours were dropped into still water. Slender stems stretch gracefully upward, some crossing and intertwining, creating a sense of height and movement without any heaviness. At several points among the blooms, ethereal butterflies drift, their wings barely outlined, almost transparent, as though caught mid-flutter in a gentle breeze. The background has a misty, dawn-like quality, similar to the soft light you might see over Alexandra Recreation Ground, with subtle gradients that suggest distance and air, not clutter or confusion. The entire design feels tactile despite its softness; you can almost imagine the feathery texture of the flower heads if you reached out to touch them. Above this serene floral field, a simple, sincere sympathy message would sit comfortably, never overpowering the artwork but supported by it, like kind words spoken in a quiet voice. The overall effect is of calm reflection and compassionate presence - a card that doesn't shout its sentiment, but rather stays close, like a caring neighbour delivering flowers after a funeral service. In this way, the illustration honours grief with gentleness, offering a visual embrace that mirrors the thoughtful gestures so treasured within the local Penge community.
