ABOUT RONALD FRONTIN

Ronald Frontin is a contemporary Maine painter who continues the American realist tradition of Winslow Homer and Thomas Eakins with his fastidiously rendered figural images set on the coast and in the countryside. His subjects include the hardworking fisherman and farmers of Maine and his family and friends.

Frontin was born in Camden, Maine, in 1962 and today resides near the town of Rockland. Indeed, he only lived out of his home state briefly, while attending the Philadelphia College of Art (1981-85) and while apprenticing in Andalusia, Pennsylvania, with the noted realist painter Nelson Shanks (1985-88).

He has recently been working on new body of work which will be seen soon in an upcoming show, the title of which is Fun and Games.

ABOUT SHORELINE HOME SALES

At Shoreline Home Sales, our company goal is simple. We want to satisfy as many customers as possible.

We are home planners. We want to help you plan your home, whatever your needs may be. Whether you already have subcontractors in mind or whether you need us to take you from start to finish, your satisfaction is our ultimate goal. Our work has allowed us to build relationships with top-notch subcontractors in the mid-coast and central Maine areas whom we would be glad to recommend. We will never recommend a subcontractor we have not worked with or have not thoroughly researched. Once you have chosen your subcontractor, Shoreline Homes will act as project manager, overseeing all work to ensure that when the the house has been built in the factory and is ready for delivery, the site will be ready to go. The house is then set and once the finish work is complete, your home is ready.

Our customers are the most important part of our business and we show this by providing a few different estimates for each job so that you may come to an informed decision about which contractor to choose. Estimates will include all work to be performed so there will be no surprises or extra costs. From state fees and taxes to transportation costs, from electrical hookups to the cellar stairs, your home will be completely finished with no hidden costs or extra charges.

Our president, Bob Bird, is from Mid-coast Maine and has been in sales and marketing throughout the state for over 20 years. He saw a huge void in his area for high quality, high-end modular homes. After researching modular home manufacturers from Canada to Pennsylvania to find the best homes for his customers, he was offered the opportunity to become an Independent Builder for New England Homes, Inc. and he jumped at it, recognizing their high production standards and superb value. His first order with them was for five homes! The people in Mid-coast and Central Maine can finally have high quality modular homes at very affordable prices.
