Description: Basalt boulder rock art. Black is natural desert varnish.

About this Award: Awarded to recognize high quality in carving of any style, in any media.

Jurors' Comments:
Elmer: The piece shows that the artist took advantage of the natural shape of the rock, carving into the natural formation of the rock.
Traci: It makes me think of a modern day interpretation of a petroglyph.
