I first came across Morandi’s paintings in an oil painting class I took a couple years ago in Portland. The New York Times published a lovely review of the Morandi show at the Met. A couple of things jumped out at me - the focus on form, painterly qualities, and subtlety of color relationships, and the earthy palette.

These remind me so much of Genady, do you remember him? He made still lifes very much like this when he went to the NY studio program and he liked Morandi’s work a lot. Very simple and nice.

Yes! I remember Genady. I wonder what’s become of him. Maybe he’ll pop up on Facebook…
