Personal and Sacred: II

Indian rock painting
Indian rock painting was personal and often sacred art. Its exact meaning was known only to the artist. When he died the secret of his art went with him. Some natives spent their lives around hidden art but were allowed to see only those drawings that their status or qualifications entitled them to see.
