  RECOGNIZING THE STUDENT ARTISTS WINNING THE STATE OF THE ARTS AWARDS

 Mr. CRAMER. Mr. President, I want to recognize four talented 
North Dakota students whose artwork will be on display in my State 
offices this year.
  They are the winners of the State of the Arts Awards in this year's 
North Dakota Juried Student Art Show. Hosted by the Taube Museum of Art 
in Minot, this year's contest had more than 300 entries from students 
across North Dakota. The four State of the Arts awards are among 116 
awards presented to our State's young artists in this competition.
  The students whose art was selected for my offices are: Matthew 
Upton, Artwork Title: ``Eagle,'' Grade 8, South Middle School, Grand 
Forks; Ashlynn

Hartsell, Artwork Title: ``Heart Sunset,'' Grade 5, Washington 
Elementary, Valley City; Sydney Nelson, Artwork Title: ``Welding in the 
Fall,'' Grade 12, Valley City High School, Valley City, and Olivia 
Dorsher, Artwork Title: ``Good Boring Days,'' Grade 11, Grand Forks 
Central High School, Grand Forks.
  I congratulate these students and thank them for sharing their 
talents with my North Dakota constituents who will visit my State 
offices this year. They are an inspiration to all of us who appreciate 
the gift artists have for capturing the beauty all around us. I also 
commend those who judge this annual competition and the teachers and 
parents who have nurtured the emerging skills of these young North 
Dakota artists.
