Art matters on perspective. Some can see a painting as sad, and others happy. It matters how you look at it.

I like Leonardo Da Vinci more than Michelangelo. I think that Leo has mad it very far in life even though he was left handed and being left handed was a bad thing. Also his parents were never married even when he was born, that was also a bad thing.

I personally like Leonardo da Vinci more than Michelangelo. I like his artwork because I am a Catholic and understand his paintings more than Michelangelo. If I learned more about Michelangelo's paintings I might change my mind but as of right now I think Leonardo da Vinci is the better artist. My favorite piece of his is the Mona Lisa. I like it because I find it interesting that it was never finished and the painting still sold for a lot of money. That shows how good of an artist he is. Though Michelangelo was a good artist still prefer Leonardo da Vinci.

I agree with you Luke because Da Vinchi paintings were so much easier to understand what was happening. Another reason why is because in Michelangelo I didn't know what was happening.

I agree with you Luke. Leonardo's paintings were easier to understand because a large amount of people are Christian so it is easy to decode the paintings.

I agree with you Delaney. I think Leonardo da Vinci made is extremely far in life for being left handed. His artwork is enjoyed by many people around the world today. I see how you said he is the best artist.

I like Leonardo better. One of the reason is because in most pieces nobody is naked (like how they are in Michelangelo's artwork) . I understand that was a thing to make naked statues back then. But I'm just not the type of person to enjoy that stuff. Or call it amazing, beautiful, or cry over it being such a "powerful" piece of artwork. My favorite painting is the Virgin of the Rocks.

I think Leonardo is the best artist because he has created so many things that are well known today. I think the last supper is his best painting because it really shows how calm Jesus is with his disciples. He really expresses the nature of the piece.

I disagree with you Romeo. I disagree with you because while Da Vinci was painting, Michelangelo was sculpting sculptures that take much more skill.

Well Ethan, paintings represent more things than sculptors. So I disagree with you!

I am going to disagree with all of you and say I prefer Michelangelo better than Da Vinci. I like him better because he was a sculptor. This shows so much craftsmenship coming from him. My favorite art of his is his sculpture of Moses.

Im going to agree and disagree with you Ethan. While sculpting does take talent and time so does painting. You have to being very inspired and motivated that's why I believe Leo left most of his paintings unfinished. Sculpting is a beautiful form of art but it doesn't take much inspiration and not as much time as paintings.

I think that Leonardo is better. I think he is better because he was a many disadvantages like being Left handed, but still was an expert in many fields. My favorite Artwork of Leonardo is the Annunciation because it has great back round detail.

I think the same of Leonardo Da Vinci, he had so many differences than others that he could have thought about giving up but he did not. He did not let things such as being left handed set him back like they would have for many people back then.

I think Leonardo is better in my opinion because he was always looked down on because he was left handed and an illegitimate child. I think his ways of doing art was what set him apart from others such as because he was such a slow painter instead of painting wet plaster he painted it while it was dry. My favorite of his works of art is the Mona Lissa as he was never truly done with it which makes it seem mysterious as to what the final product of it could have looked but the shading and three-fourths pose also set his works apart in the renaissance.

In my opinion Leonardo Da Vinci is the better artist. I really like how he used certain and different techniques for almost each piece of art work. And he was never really done with any of his pieces, he always believed that they could be touched up even more. And his childhood did not affect him as an artist at all and he kept pursuing his dream. He was also an inventor, his brain was so great and ahead of his times that it was incredible.

I forgot to put my favorite piece of artwork, sorry. My favorite piece of Leonardo Da Vinci's is The Last Supper. It is my favorite because of the technique he used. It let him paint at his own pace and went along with his own ability.

I think da vinci was better because paintings represent more than sculptors. You get the true affect the painter is representing and you feel like you are there because that is how much it represents.

I think Leonardo was the best because of his paintings. They had great detail and mysterious stories behind them as there are many theories more about the Mona Lisa to back that up. Michaelangelos sculpting was amazing and did take time but in sculptures it's easy to see what it represents and who it is while with paintings it could ave a whole story behind it meaning multiple different things. Also, paintings take more inspiration meaning more time to finish it which I believe is why Leonardo never finished most of his including the Mona Lisa. As for my favorite artwork I'd have to chose the Mona Lisa. It's a very different style than most as she has manly feautures allowing us to consume different theories behind the painting. His other artworks are great but "The Last Supper" it is easy to tell what the picture shows. That's why I chose Leonardo da Vinci
