Happy 138th Birthday Carl Sammons

Today is the 138th birthday of the artist Carl Sammons. His paintings of the California North and Central Coast landscapes are his most popular. I first experienced his art sitting at the kitchen table of a fourth generation Northern Coast Californian friend of mine. She casually mentioned that her mother had commissioned the paintings when he had come through the area on one of his painting tours. The soft, muted palate and calming vistas are very pleasing and in turn, very collectible. The world is a better place because he was in it and still feels the loss that he has left.
