Hi Everyone,
Before jumping into the DQ for this Module, here are some pointers designed to help you maximize your discussion points.

within the first 6-days of the Module and no later than 11:59 PM of the first

to give away points by not doing so.
*  Make good use of the spellchecker function before you hit “Post”.
*  Always fold in references for all of your posts.  This adds a great deal of depth   
and credibility to your post.  If you quote from outside sources, please don’t forget to add the

Class, 
As we all know the Renaissance is a huge part of the Art worlds history. Renaissance art consists of paintings, sculptures, architectures, music, and literature produced during the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries in Europe under the combined influences of an increased awareness of nature, a revival of classical learning, and a more individualistic view of man. 
The Renaissance Art was very elegant and detailed. You can tell that they cared about their artwork and took their time inserting numerous small details to make their Artwork come to life. They were also very good at using their imagination to enhance things that may have been simple and turn it into something amazing to look at. Even looking at pictures of some of the statues, canvasses and other artwork that was done back then today it is still very intriguing to view. I don’t believe that there is an era that can ever replace or be better than this era which is why it is considered one of its own.
