To me, the qualities particular to Morandi's work lay in the way he used the paint in such a meditative, focused way. In a Morandi each brush stroke appears to relate to the total composition of the work as well as relishing it's own presence just as paint. I think the fact that most works relate to ceramic jars and bottles is really a side issue. I don’t see any particular relationship between Morandi’s and Piggott’s work at all.
