If you go • What: Mid-Atlantic Painting Exhibition • Where: Ridderhof Martin Gallery at the University of Mary Washington 1301 College Avenue, Fredericksburg, VA 22401 • Hours: Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday, 1 to 4 p.m. • Cost: $5. tant to me.” The paintings selected for the mid-Atlantic exhibition were hand picked by John Ravenal, a curator of modern and contemporary art for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond. He received about 350 submissions.

“I’m looking for work that stands out, that makes me pause and want to look more closely at it,” he said. And to him, both Norman’s and Patton’s paintings did just that. Thirty-three works were selected for the exhibition, which runs the gamut of painting styles from realism to geometric abstraction to expressionism. It is open to the public now through March 2.
