“The Rock People” is an 18x24 acrylic mixed media original painting.

I’ve been obsessed with tide pools and rock pools ever since I read Anne of Avonlea (book 2 of the Anne of Green Gables series). Anne had a student, Paul Irving, who would go to the seashore to visit the rock pools every day to play with his imaginary friends, the Rock People. They had names like “Twin Sailors”, “Golden Lady” and “Nora”. Ahhh Lucy Maud Montgomery (author) will forever have my imagination and my heart!

As a native of Indiana, I had no clue what a rock pool was, so I did a little research and found out that tide pools are formed by the gravitational pull of the moon on the ocean. Goosebumps.

After doing a little more research and drooling over all of the gorgeous rock pools in North America, I was inspired to create my own rock pool…this is where I imagine Paul Irving and Anne Shirley meandering after school to meet up with Nora, the Golden Lady and the Twin Sailors!
