Meeker Slough

Tidal Marsh at Dawn - 9" x 12" - oil on linen panel

The sun has not yet risen, so the whole sky is one big luminescent dome. In the distant hills, the city of Oakland, CA, is just waking up. The air is full of the smell of fresh baked bread? Yes, this is near Grace Baking, where breads for grocery stores and restaurants are being coming out of the oven, and being loaded onto trucks. I love the smell, though at a scene like this, I always expect the smell of seaweed.
