Funeral
The illustration inside this sympathy card carries the same quiet grace as an early walk through a dewy Hounslow garden before the town fully wakes. Soft watercolour washes of violet, dusky blue, and gentle sage green drift across the background, merging into one another like distant clouds over Hounslow Heath. Rising from this delicate mist are fine, willowy stems of umbelliferous flowers, their rounded, lacework heads sketched with exquisite lightness. Some of the flower clusters are filled with pale violets and blues, while others are drawn as near-transparent silhouettes, creating a layered effect that suggests a meadow seen through morning fog. The stems bend lightly, as though stirred by a tender breeze, yet the overall feeling remains calm and composed. Among these ethereal blooms, butterflies appear with wings that are barely more than a suggestion of colour and line, as if caught mid-flight. They move visually between the petals, adding a note of hope and continuity to the scene. The colour palette stays cool and soothing, never bright or brash, reflecting the gentle nature of sympathy itself. Light seems to spread evenly across the design, softening every edge and deepening the contemplative mood. For someone in Hounslow choosing a condolence card to send alongside fresh flowers, this design offers not just an image, but a mood: reflective, compassionate, and quietly supportive. It feels like a thoughtful companion for someone going through bereavement, offering a space to pause, remember, and feel held in kindness.
