“Sum of Our Parts” is inspired by David, a 1504 marble statue by Michaelangelo that is now in Galleria dell’Accademia in Florence, Italy
This painting bounced around in my head for years before I let it out. We are all the sum of our parts. My parts always start in the art world. When you have a career that is your passion, your parts are a pathway to your soul. That sounds melodramatic but it's so true. In traditional atelier schools, students start their art studies by drawing and painting plaster casts. These casts of the features from Michaelangelo's David sculpture are arguably the most popular casts to study.
