« Mes sculptures, il faut qu'elles restent à portée de l'enfance, car l'enfant est pur. Quand je sculpte, je redeviens un enfant en face de son jouet, en face de la glaise. J'ai besoin de la candeur de mon enfance. Je fais mes jouets d'homme comme j'ai fait mes jouets d'enfant » J.M.David.
En 1986 José-Maria David décide de se consacrer entièrement à la sculpture, avec comme seul et unique thème les animaux.
L'acuité de son oeil de sculpteur a permis à José-Maria David voir le même animal dans le temps et l'espace avec un regard différent, d'en capter une nouvelle synthèse et d'en fixer les lignes de force dans la matière avec une parfaite maîtrise.
Dans ses sculptures , l'animalité, son sens de l'appréhension de la vie ne se conçoit qu'en réaction du présent :l'animal est et devient la gratification la plus développée du présent dans l'esprit de l'homme.
Sa vision de l'animal a évolué d'une saisie extrêmement fougueuse et rapide des volumes, vers un regard tout à la fois précis et complexe : ses sculptures affirment l'idée d'un mouvement, affirmant une perception de dynamique propre à chaque animal.
L'animalité est devenue générique d'une puissance de signification globale.
On peut comparer son style académique et figuratif aux sculptures animalières du XIXe siècle d'Antoine-Louis Barye.
