Is there a painting or sculpture you’re drawn to? What does it say to you? Describe the experience. (Or, if art doesn’t speak to you, tell us why.)

Edouard Degas' "Little Ballerina" is one of my favorite sculptures, that and Rodin's "Thinker". There is something about both of them that represents, the best of the human spirit, at least that is what I see when I gaze at both of them. There is something within those two pieces of beauty that speaks to my soul, the perfect stillness and peaceful repose that comforts me.
