Funeral
The artwork inside this funeral sympathy card evokes the kind of calm you might find walking near the fields around Sipson in the early hours, when the horizon is washed in soft colour and the day has not yet found its full voice. Across the card, delicate silhouettes of wildflowers stretch gently upwards, their stems thin and slightly curved, drawn in fine lines that feel as fragile as new growth. These are umbelliferous blooms, the heads opening out in airy circular clusters, each tiny floret suggested by a dot or a small stroke, creating a lacework effect that is intricate yet never fussy. The flowers arise from a base of blended watercolour tones-muted purples, indigos, and silvery greens-that bleed into one another like low clouds or distant trees seen through morning mist. Hints of additional stems and leaves are suggested in the background, soft and indistinct, giving the impression of a meadow fading away into light. Among the tallest blooms, butterflies drift and hover, their wings pale and almost see-through, outlined just enough to be felt rather than fully seen. They embody a sense of gentle transition, much like the quiet changes of light over Harmondsworth Moor. The overall mood is one of tenderness and respect, with no bold colour or stark contrast to jar the eye. Instead, there is a comforting continuity of tone, a cool yet soothing palette that invites stillness. It feels like the visual equivalent of a softly spoken condolence from a neighbour in Sipson-a card that holds space for sorrow while wrapping it in the reassuring presence of nature and enduring memory.
