Is it true that Michelangelo worked only as a painter and never as a sculptor or architect?

No. Multiple reference sources identify Michelangelo as a sculptor, painter and architect, and document specific sculptures such as the Pietà and David, directly contradicting the claim that he worked only as a painter.
