McCaul Announces Cypress Student Winner of 2019 Congressional Art Competition

Yesterday, I announced that Nataly Nasrawi of Cypress, TX has been selected as the overall winner for Texas’s Tenth Congressional District in the 2019 Congressional Art Competition. Nataly’s artwork, titled “Holy Cow Stop Steering at Me,” will be displayed in the U.S. Capitol for one year.

I was very impressed with the quality of artwork we received this year from TX-10.  Specifically, congratulations to Nataly for being chosen as this year’s winner.  Her artwork will be displayed in the U.S. Capitol for the next year among some of the best student artwork from around the country.  I also want to commend runner-ups Luciana and Fabiana for their outstanding art pieces. These accomplishments are a true testament to their artistic skill and it makes me proud to know such promising talent resides in the 10th District of Texas.

Below are this year’s 2nd place and 3rd place winners, and Honorable Mention distinction.
