The late Paul Frontiero Sr. Art Exhibit continues 2014.
Thanks to all who came out for the opening back in September. I had a great time talking to everyone about my Dad’s Artwork and Life. I was surprised to meet his collectors from years ago. Some came from far away to view and purchase a painting. My Dad would’ve been so happy. Thanks again, Paul Jr.
Many Paintings are still available through State of the Art Galleries Through out the summer of 2014
‘From Ships to Shores’: Doryman left fishing to pursue painting
By Gail McCarthy Staff Writer
The son of a Gloucester fisherman, the late Paul Francis Frontiero Sr., began fishing with his father at the age of 12.
He did not know then that this would become his way of life for many years. He never finished Gloucester High School because his father was injured while fishing and he had to leave his studies. As a result, he spent many years laboring in jobs at sea.
Frontiero, born in 1925, even worked as a doryman, an avocation that became extinct; with the innovation of the motorized trawler, the dory fishing industry began to wither in the late 1930s. However, he remained in demand on the port’s fishing vessels because of his skills as an engineer and cook.

Also worked 1 year babysitting children made a Whooping $10.00 dollars a week then which was a lot. She mentioned going to Vic Vacaries store Bayview where they had jukebox and they would hand out and dance there.
