Biography from AskART:

He painted decorations in many homes and public places including a mural on gold leaf of Tudor Home in Mission San Jose. His work was described as antique in effect, with rich old colors deftly handled to represent age. Chappel died in Los Angeles on Nov. 3, 1963. Exh: Courvoisier Gallery (SF), 1930; Oakland Art Gallery, 1930s. | Source:
