not only surpassed all modern artists, but also the Greeks and Romans, by
infusing formal beauty with powerful expressiveness and meaning.
Michelangelo’s David does not make me feel a certain way. It is
simply a magnificent statue. This statue does not have a certain mood.
David is a statue of David in the nude looking off into the distance. The
color is white, so it does not show any mood through its color. This work of
art is a re .....

The focus of most of White's work is on a spiritual and moral level. He often refers to religious events and events in his life when describing his work. A lot of his work is based upon symbols White would pick out .....
