BILL CHAPPELL

 

Across the Fence

 

By Arvord Abernethy

 

Another part of the art show was some bronze sculpturing done by Bill Chappell. Bill is a western artist, and you could almost hear the war whoop of the Indians who were off the scene, but were attacking the cowboys in one of his pieces of work, He is also an expert in painting western scenes, as everyone will testify who has seen his work.

 

Bill’s main studio is at South Fork, Colorado (this is not J. R. Ewing’s South Fork he has in his TV series, Dallas ), but we like to claim Bill and his wife Fay as being a part of us here in Hamilton County . They lived in the Lanham community before he entered the navy during World War II, and they have owned property in Hamilton County nearly all the time, so have often been here for short stays. Their present place is east of Hamilton on Highway 22.
