  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Anton Zhou of 
Sugar Land, Texas for being named a Texas Young Master in visual arts 
for the spring of 2016. This is one of the most impressive awards given 
to a young artist in their state.
  Anton currently attends Clements High School and previously attended 
the XinSheng Wang Art School. At 17 years of age, Anton has won 
multiple awards and recognition for his well-known impressionist and 
contemporary art style. Founded in 2002, the Texas Young Master program 
was developed by the Texas Cultural Trust and the Texas Commission on 
the Arts. They recognize students from 8th through 11th grade who have 
proven incredible artistic talent in either visual, performing, or 
literary arts. Students recognized as a Texas Young Master are awarded 
$5,000 in scholarships each year for two years, to assist with 
continuing education in their selected art form.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Anton Zhou for being named a Texas Young 
Master. We can't wait to see what the future brings for him.
