I made this sympathy card for a friend who lost his mother to pancreatic cancer.
It's hard to tell from the photo, but I used grey chalk to shade the white background, starting from the dove and moving to the upper left. At that corner, where the grey is most concentrated, I added the smallest hint of blue, orange, and pink chalk. To me, the color represents hope and promise, which can be hard to see during the pain of grieving. I hope my card brings him some comfort.
