Rock art, pictographs and petroglyphs, over 1,000 years old. The faded red images are by the early Fremont people. The etched white figures were created hundreds of years later.
Sego Canyon near Moab.

"Standing outside his shelter carved in stone, he stares at the sky with amazement. He calls them "gloqowejg", and carves what he sees in the rock. His talent shows, he completed this in just 30 moons. This early stargazer left this memory for you, long after his journey skyward"

Spent the afternoon the Dragonfly Trail in the foothills of the Gila National Forest today. We didn't find the dragonfly but we spotted another one so that's a win.

The weather was beautiful, the creek along the trail was flowing from snow melt, and there was just the right amount of people on the trail. All in all a pretty great Sunday afternoon!

"I truly have no idea what inspired the artist to carve this cat-like figure into desert basalt more than a 1000 years ago, but I was delighted to happen upon it as the sky exploded at -- Over the past 100 years, jaguars have ranged as far north as the Grand Canyon in Arizona and the northern Rio Grande in New Mexico."

Eddie Guimont and I failed to track down the Bigfoot from the โ€” not even a single Pukwudgie โ€” but we did locate the famous site! It was impressively obscure and required some heavy bushwhacking and moderate ice skating to locate.

@ArchaeoIain, good telescopic view.
This panel was called world's greatest , then they found the giraffe in the Sahara. I still rate this as the best, but I'm biased by the dot count and astronomy codex aspect. This is as impressive as gets, in my humble opinion.
This photo is from closer on the death defying six inch ledge and pretty high up, but the cliff leans in so it wasn't uncomfortable in the dangerous sense. Sure takes a long lens to capture the detail.

@archeaids
I like to spray on a layer of snow white over a clay body which can better handle the stress of firing. This piece, with an design, is glazed with my Fat White Crackle :
gerstley borate 300
custer feldspar 180
ferro frit 3134 72
epk kaolin 12
tin oxide 30
zircopax 6
The photorealistic image is a paper cutout made with a projected transparency. I soak the thick paper in paraffin so it won't absorb glaze.
