Funeral
The image inside this sympathy card feels like a soft exhale, reminiscent of the gentle stillness that settles over Old Malden's residential streets as evening approaches. Slender wildflower stems rise from the lower edge, each one drawn with careful, tapering lines that arc and intertwine in natural rhythm. At their tops, umbel-shaped flower heads fan out in delicate, lace-like sprays, tinted in shades of lavender, dusky purple, and cool blue. The petals are finely detailed yet partially translucent, as though light is passing through them, giving the sense that these blooms are both present and quietly fading, like a cherished memory. Behind them, the background is washed with layered watercolour tones-muted purples, blue-greys, and hints of soft, silvery green-that blur into one another in gentle gradients, suggesting a hazy horizon or a dew-softened field near the Hogsmill. Within this calming scene, a few butterflies drift around the flowers, their wings rendered in pale, ghostlike shapes of lilac and white. They hover in mid-air with an almost suspended stillness, symbolising hope, transition, and the comforting idea that the spirit continues in some tender form. The overall composition is airy and spacious, leaving room for quiet thought, much like a reflective walk along the quieter corners of Old Malden. Overhead, a simple condolence message is written in elegant script, its flowing lines echoing the gentle curves of the stems below. This design, with its subdued palette and soft textures, offers a visual embrace to someone experiencing loss-a card that neither shouts nor fades away, but stays close in gentle solidarity, like a caring neighbour at your door.
