Danger Rocks

Here is an 8"x10" oil on panel I did at the end of the State Fish Pier in Gloucester. I got all the color notes I wanted before losing too much light. I'll be doing some more work on the Sky before calling it done.

Paul Frontiero Sr. and some examples of his work







My Father Paul Frontiero Sr. was Born in 1925 grew up down at the Fort. Paul started fishing around the age of 12. He fished with many boats as a; Engineer, Cook and as a Doryman on seiners. He Joined the navy and became a Coxswain on an LCVP and participated in many Pacific invasions. Such as; Saipan, Tinian, Leyte. He also witnessed the signing of the Surrender by the Japanese. His ship was just two away from the ceremony and caught glimpses of the signing. Being part of the first wave into Japan after the war his job was to ferry Japanese work parties and officials back and forth on his LCVP. There is a working LCVP in Gloucester called the
"Salvage Star" The owners built a pilot house on the back of it, you can see it all around Gloucester Harbor working. After the War he continued fishing. He was always drawing while out at sea and began painting in 1960.
In the early 1970's and 80's His paintings were displayed in many Restaurants, Banks, Motels and other Busineses around Cape Ann. He has many Collectors around the World. His Paintings can be seen by appointment. Contact Paul At Frontiero@hotmail.com
