Funeral
This condolence card carries a delicate, nature-inspired illustration that feels as calm and reflective as an early morning walk through De Beauvoir Square when the streets are still hushed. Wispy umbel flower heads rise on fine, almost threadlike stems, painted in transparent layers of violet, dusky blue, and muted lavender. They fan out above a field of soft watercolour washes, where lilac and grey-green tones melt into each other like mist hovering over garden lawns after a night of light rain. Each flower is intricate yet never heavy: the tiny clustered florets appear lace-like, with edges that blur gently into the background, lending the whole scene a sense of breath and movement. Among these gentle blooms, faintly outlined butterflies seem to drift on an invisible breeze, their wings barely defined, as if caught in a brief moment of stillness. The palette is cool and understated, dominated by purples and silvery greens that soothe rather than startle. Light appears to filter gently from above, revealing subtle variations of tone without casting any strong shadows. The emotional effect is that of quiet contemplation, a visual space where grief is acknowledged with compassion and care. As a florist serving De Beauvoir Town and the nearby canal-side terraces, I am reminded of the comfort that simple, natural forms can offer in times of loss. The card feels like a soft-spoken companion, pairing thoughtful words with an image that invites the recipient to pause, breathe, and feel held in a moment of calm understanding.
