Les Grandes Baigneuses - Renoir

I chose Les Grandes Baigneuses by Renoir. He was a French artist who was a leading painter in the development of the Impressionist Style.
Renoir's paintings are notable for their vibrant light and saturated color, most often focusing on people in intimate and candid compositions. The female nude was one of his primary subjects.
The works of his early maturity were typically Impressionist snapshots of real life, full of sparkling colour and light. By the mid 1880s, however, he had broken with the movement to apply a more disciplined, formal technique to portraits and figure paintings, particularly of women, such as Les Grandes Baigneuses. He concentrated especially on monumental nudes and domestic scenes.
Les Grandes Baigneuses is the most typical and successful of Renoir's late, abundantly fleshed nudes.
Renoir is known as a celebrator of beauty, and especially feminine sensuality.

Well, I chose this painting because I'm very impressed about the painting because I think in those times people were very frightened about things like those, and this painting became very successful! I thing Renoir's style is unique and I like some of the themes he used to use. I like he was related with sensuality and beauty, I think he was very creative and in this painting I think there is so much impressionism, because a nude woman is the nearest idea to represent the realism and the life how it is, the nearest idea to Impressionism.

H) Decision Making Tree

The Decision Making Tree works giving consequences and different posibilities to variables. It helps you to make a decision and it helps you to see the posible consequences, advantages and disadvantages, the differences with the other ones and the different paths you can take to get the best results.

G) Benjamin Franking's Method

Benjamin's method was about taking in consideration variables that are important for you and rate them according your interests or your current situation. It was for make a decision about two or more things, and make the decision the best posible, taking in consideration your interests, and some of them considerating your current position (for example, Money).

Advantages:
-You can make a better decision.
-It considers your interests and likes.
-It takes into account your situation and posibilities.

Disadvantages:
-Sometimes it's difficult to rate variables.
-If the result is almost the same for both, again it will be difficult to make a decision.
-If you do something wrong in the process, your decision will be very affected.

F) Different Style of Thinking

I think the word is the meaning. It's to have the different way of thinking than everyone else. To be different, to think better or just different things. I think everyone has their own different style of Thinking, not everyone thinks the same, everyone has their own style.

E) Creativity

Creativity is the quality, the ability to be imaginative, to make the things in a different way, to create new and original things. The ability to develop new and original ideas. I think always trying to be ORIGINAL.

D) Creative Thinking

Creative Thinking is the thinking of being new and original, to find the best ways to solve a problem, to being creative on everything, and to discover new ideas.
The thinking of solve a problem differently.

C) Problem Three

Respect.
Respect ohter people. Respect the places I'll visit. Respect and follow the rules of the country I visit.
Tolerance.
Be tolerant if something gets bad or if something does not go like I planned.
Optimism.
Be optimist always. Don't get down if something gets bad. Be happy. Enjoy every moment, because not everyday you have the opportunity to visit Europe.

B) Problem Two

Well, If I had to go to Eurepe I would visit so many countries and places and everything, but before all that I must consider some variables that maybe would change my way and will make me take desicions, I hope the best desicions :)
I would take in consideration variables such as MONEY! I think this variable is the one that would make me change everything. It depends on how much money I have, and how much money the places I'll go will cost.
Another variable may be TURISM. I think it's important for me, because if I went to Europe, I would like to visit the most famous places.
Another variable would be DISTANCE. Because it depends on where I will arrive. If I arrive in France, then I will visit the nearest places of France. I think if I visit the nearest places I will have the chance to visit more places than if I visit a place that is very far from France.
Another variable that I think I really must take in consideration would be TIME. How much time do I have? If I have 3 or 4 weeks then it's for sure I can visit so many places, but if I go for a week so I must take in consideration past variables (Money, Turism and Distance) to get a desicion and choose the best palces.
I think the last variable I would take in consideration would be MY LIKES! Because maybe a place can be very touristic but I'm not interested on it. or maybe a place is not well visited but I really want to visit that specific place. Maybe one day of my stay I just want to walk around the city and get to a Starbucks or something like that.
Fine! I think those are some of the variables that I would take in consideration if I go to Europe.

A) Problem One

Well first of all I'll consider my possibles variables, that in this problem the most important is MONEY. Other variables are that my friends are sick and that University has already started. Taking in consideration University I would say that it's better to study a carrer in Denmark. There are more oportunities and much more chances. If I return to Aguascalientes maybe I would lose most of the course, I would lose money in returning and, in my opinion, if we are talking about "study" I would stay in Denmark and enter to a Danish University and start working because I don't have money. In the worst case would be that I dont' study so dedicate all my time in get a job and work to earn the enough money to get back and then enter the next year to continue my University in Ags.
About my friends, I think there's no problem about it. In my opinion, I do not depend on them. It would not affect me if they are ill or if they are not.
About money! that's the big deal... If I get back to Ags I would lose a lot of money, I'm broke and I don't think I could get back. Maybe if I stay in Denmark for a while, I will work, I will earn money there and about my studies I could take a course there or wait until I get back to Ags.
So my desicion would be stay in Denmark defenitely. I don't have money to get back, In Denmark I can get a job and get some money.
