Funeral
The artwork on this funeral card offers a quiet moment of escape, like finding a pocket of stillness close to Charing Cross station. Tall, whisper-thin stems of wildflowers rise from a softly shaded base, painted in cool, subdued tones that seem to blur gently into one another. The clustered, umbrella-shaped flower heads are sketched in tender violets, subdued blues, and subtle lilac, their edges fading into a background washed with silvery greens and pale purples. Nothing here is bold or solid; instead, the colours shift smoothly, evoking a hazy, early-morning light along the Thames when the city is just beginning to stir. The stems themselves are dark yet fine, giving a sense of structure without heaviness, like ink lines laid carefully over a watercolour ground. Above the fragile silhouettes of the blooms, butterflies drift with wings outspread, rendered with barely-there outlines and soft hints of colour, suggesting the delicate presence of a spirit or cherished memory. The composition leaves generous areas of open space, inviting the eye-and the mind-to rest. Light appears diffused, as if filtered through soft cloud, ensuring the overall impression remains soothing and contemplative. The textures look like gentle brushstrokes on textured paper, rather than glossy print, adding to the sense of something hand-touched and sincere. This card would sit beautifully beside white lilies, soft roses, or any understated condolence flowers delivered to a family home or service venue near Charing Cross, offering a visual language of tenderness, remembrance, and quiet support during a time of mourning.
