Funeral
In this sympathy card, the artist has created a scene as peaceful as a quiet corner of a park just off Seven Sisters Road, where you can pause and breathe for a moment. Slender stems of wild umbellifer flowers stretch upward from a softly tinted base, each line drawn with a delicacy that suggests both fragility and resilience. These stems fork into airy umbrellas of tiny blossoms, painted in a palette of cool violets, powder blues, and muted lilac tones. The colours don't shout; they converse gently with one another, overlapping in subtle gradients. Soft sage and eucalyptus greens whisper along the lower part of the card, shaping the foliage without dominating the design. The background is a wash of translucent watercolour, drifting between silvery green and misty purple, much like the sky over Tottenham Hale can appear in the early evening when the light begins to fade. Pale butterflies glide through the space between flowers, their wings little more than transparent veils with the faintest hint of lavender or pearl. They feel weightless, capturing the idea of a tender presence that is felt more than seen. The overall lighting within the illustration is diffuse, like gentle daylight filtering through thin clouds, easing the eye along each stem and petal. Everything about the composition-the spacing of the flowers, the openness of the negative space, the soft transitions of colour-invites quiet reflection. The sympathy message rests gently above or among the blooms, speaking with understated sincerity. This is the kind of card that sits gracefully alongside a carefully chosen condolence arrangement delivered locally, adding visual solace to the thoughtful words offered to families in Seven Sisters and the surrounding streets.
