Description Although I have ad this account for some time this is the first time that I have posted my artwork here at Deviant Art.

I usually stick to portraiture, but in the last year I have started to explore new territory in my work.
This started out as an exercise in the texturesand composition of rocks. I shot a lot of photos that day. This one jumped out at me. I could see dancers in the negative space between the rocks. As I drew these rocks I began to see shapes in the cracks and crevices that began to tell a broken story of stone age people and their life style. I just went with the flow. This isn't the best of pictures but if you look closely you can see hunters stalking their pray as well as a mother and child and how their lives were ruled by the elements. The final hidden picture is larger then the rest, an artist recording history on a cave wall.
Enjoy and thanks for looking,
Laura

BTW this is not a photo...if anyone should be confused...it is a realistic drawing in pencil. I used 2HB mech pencil, 2H, 2B, 3B and I believe 6B wood pencils on Strathmore Bristol Smooth 100lb paper.
