‘Mattise Model' Expressionism Portrait of Woman By Frater
By Hal Frater
Located in Carmel, CA
Portrait Of a Women Painting - - oil on canvas Hal Frater passed away on February 3, 2008, just a month from celebrating his 99th birthday. Hal Frater had a long and prolific career.

His contemporaries that influenced him were Jack Levine, Raphael Soyer, John Sloan, Thomas Hart Benton, Reginald Marsh and Phillip Reisman...
