Giorgio Morandi


Someone may notice the header image is a painting by Giorgio Morandi. He may not be very very well-known. But once you've seen his paintings, the mug you use to drink tea everyday will never be the same.

I remember my first encounter with the name "Giorgio Morandi". Many years ago when I was an art student, I was stuck not knowing what to paint. I picked up 2 rolls of toilet paper, put them in a "not so mundane" way and started to paint. My tutor saw and said it's very "Morandi". I didn't have a clue and looked it up. Shocked.
