Donatello didn't make David. It was Michelangelo and he took over a commission for the statue. Two prior sculptors had attempted and abandoned. Michelangelo returned to Florence in 1501 and was commissioned by the city to do the statue to enhance the Duomo. It took him 3 years to finish.

Was Donatello a painter?
Yes. In 1412, when he was about 26 years old, Donatello joined the artists' Guild of St Luke, and was described as Pictor, or painter. Throughout his ensuing artistic career, he was known to direct his students, "Draw: that is the whole foundation of sculpture." And long after his death in 1466, he was praised by the multi-talented Benvenuto Cellini as a successful painter. So, like Michelangelo, Donatello was both painter and sculptor. But unlike Michelangelo, he became known only for his sculptures. For a stained glass window design has become the main indication of his other artistic skills as a painter.

What types of materials were used for sculpting before Donatello invented the bronze technique?
Donatello (b 1386 or 1387; d Florence, 13 Dec 1466) did not invent the technique for casting bronze. He was however the first sculptor since antiquity to revive the use of bronze casting to create free standing figures. He is also considered to be the father of modern sculpture. The art of casting bronze has been used since Sumerian times. Also used in Egypt, where it is believed the Greeks learned the technique in the 6th century BC. Greek statues 'The Riace Bronzes, Warrior Figures' date around 460-450 BC. Marble has long been the choice of material for sculptors, from the ancient Greeks up to the present.
