    Donato di Niccolo di Betto Bardi, or better known as Donatello, was born in Florence, Italy around 1386 who studied with well-known sculptors who helped him to learn the Gothic Style. Even before he was 20, he became known for his work and went on as the greatest Florentine sculptor before Michelangelo and the most influential individual artist of the 15th century in Italy. Donatello used creative techniques combined with his amazing skills to create figures that incorporated not only a sense of realism, which showed the person’s emotional state using facial and body expressions, but also perspective - allowing a sculptor to create figures that occupied measurable space.

Through my experiences in drama and music I have been able to discover my own meaning of fulfillment and define who the person behind my appearance truly is.
