It has a never-ending role in this world,\u201d she said. \u201cBeing here at TSC and studying under instructors and artists like David Ransom and Robert Andes and being given the opportunity to share our work with the world is priceless.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is also the first time that Vela and many of her classmates have had an art piece for sale. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhether my piece sells or not this time around, all of these opportunities are still learning experiences and evidence that TSC changes lives, it has changed mine,\u201d said Vela. \u201cI\u2019ve undeniably grown as an artist and established a foundation I can build upon, reaffirming that the decision I made to pursue art was the right choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vela expects to earn an associate degree in Art from TSC next semester and plans on continuing her education as an artist. <\/p>\n<p>TSC Art Instructor David Ransom said he is proud of Vela and her classmates who have spent countless hours perfecting their paintings and preparing them for the Master Copy exhibit. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor our students, this exhibit and the experiences leading up to it are a moment of transformation and is immeasurable,\u201d said Ransom. \u201cI\u2019m excited that their laborious effort is now being recognized. This is why we created this exhibit &#8211; to highlight their work. I\u2019m proud of what they have produced and I know these students are going to go far.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ransom is also excited to see the TSC Art program growing with the addition of two new programs in spring 2022: Digital Media and Design II, which will introduce instruction in three-dimensional design.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about TSC\u2019s Art program, visit tsc.edu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chloe Vela has been putting paint brush to canvas since she was a little girl, and this year, she got to showcase her art as a Painting I student during the Texas Southmost College Master Copy Art Exhibit.
