Patty Overland Rupp is an accomplished
artist in a variety of media and
styles. Equally comfortable with watercolor
or acrylic and oils, she
creates painting, murals, and faux effects. Having
won awards for her
exhibited art, including Best of Show, she presents workshops
for artists
of all intent. Her pieces are charged with large brushstrokes,
multiplicity
of color and risky wet in wet techniques. “I feel the paintbrush
in my
hands and hit the paper with bold and rhythmic strokes,” says Patty,
describing the style of her work.

Public speaking is not an easy thing
to do, wherever it takes place and
whoever the speaker or the audience may
be. Teachers admit they feel
a bit nervous when they address a group of students
they have never
spoken to before and so does the president, no matter how
well-prepared he is or how interesting the speech he is going to make
might
sound.
You too can no longer feel awkward when
hundreds of eyes are watching:
