He moved to northern California in 1913. Settling in Oakland, he traveled extensively throughout California while studying at the CSFA. By the mid-1920s he had abandoned somber pastels in favor of plein air oils. He made painting trips to the Monterey Peninsula, Russian River, Palm Springs, Humboldt County, and Santa Barbara. Sammons died in Oakland on Feb. 4, 1968. Today his representational landscapes and coastal scenes are highly sought after by collectors. Exhibitions: Calif.
