Ancient Marks.

Without play, learning and evolution are impossible. Play is the taproot from which original art springs; it is the raw stuff the artist channels and organizes. Technique itself springs from play, by testing the limits and resistances of our tools.
STEPHEN NACHMANOVITCH







Had the immense privilege of travelling to Hawaii and on the "Big Island" we were taken to these amazing marks in the rock...have posted just a few today.... more to come!

    What great pictures. I too was lucky enough to have visited the Big Island. Took a walking tour of the petrogyphls as well. Did you get a glimps of my favorite one? A basic stick figure with two hugh circles on either side of its' head. I couldn't decide if it meant he had big ears or really nice earrings!
