Painting comparison


Mordani's paintings are very pale, the colors are much more dull than those of VanGogh. they also reflect the subject matter very well, they give the paitings a calm, simple feeling that matches the calm simpleness of the actual bottles and blocks.

The colors in VanGoghs paintings are much livelier and brighter, the colors seam to be more pure than Mordani's paintings which have more white mixed in the colors. The tone of the color also matches the subject matter very well, the brightness of the colors reflect the living colors of the flowers.
I really like how both artists chose to do a similar color for the backgrounds as the actual subject, it helps to tie the painting to gether and looks more fluid.
