Michelangelo. Irving Stone writes a wonderful tale here. He writes of Michelangelo's love of sculping and talent for painting. Of his genius of observation and his artist vision. When reading this book I was convinced that Michelangelo was definitely passionate about his art.

There was one part that I'll never forget in this book. It concerns how Michelangelo studied the human form. I won't give it away, in case you decide to read the book, but it was sure something that I'd never known before.

Go back in time and sit with Michelangelo on the veranda.

Hopeful for all humanity. Art and artists can do that.

Irving Stone has written many interesting biography's. He's also written "Those Who Love," which is a romantic tale of John and Abigail Adams.

I enjoyed it, so I'm passing on the good word.
