For the past 25 years, Chapel’s cast bronze sculpture has drawn accolades from the art community and its critics as well as the citizens of the communities where his works have become part of the urban landscape. Raised and educated in Colorado, Chapel had his first one-man exhibition in a Denver gallery in 1970 and his sculpture now graces civic, public and museum spaces throughout North America and as far afield as Beijing, China. In tribute to his Colorado heritage as well as his immense talent, Chapel was commissioned to create the sixteen-foot high bronze, stainless steel and concrete sculpture "Twist of Fate", a magnificent grouping of seven life-sized figures, for the Civic Center Plaza in Loveland, Colorado.

Among the way in Chapel’s career were lecture series at universities in the People’s Republic of China, three years as vice president of Quest foundry, numerous exhibitions, high-profile commissions and multi-city museum tours. After a two-year stay in the Chesapeake Bay area, Chapel located in Northern California where he continues to create unique masterpieces in bronze and stainless steel of birds, wildlife and human figures.

In addition to numerous museum shows, Chapel has had one-man shows in Denver, Aspen, Scottsdale, Santa Fe and Palm Springs. A highly regarded lecturer and instructor, Chapel is a recurring guest presenter at the Loveland Academy of Fine Art. His work is included in a number of important private, corporate and museum collections.
