ROCK ART OF THE MODOC
PREHISTORIC INSPIRATIONS FROM EARLY CALIFORNIA

This painting is another work based on Native American rock art,
in this case petroglyphs and pictographs found in the 'Petroglyph
Section' near Tule Lake in Northern California.

The video below shows more of my works based on the same site
as well as other prehistoric sources:
