S1-3      1995 Publication from the Texas Parks and Wildlife folks.  This is a book that Charles Sinclair brought to me.  The historic native paintings are "off limits"; protected and not available to view by us mere mortals. 

So, when Charles undertook his bison hide painting, centering around the native rock paintings of Texas (the hide now complete and gracing the wall of a good friend in Oregon) in addition to those he have physically visited, he used several of these ... and the story behind this whole project.  It is beautiful history.

From another source:  "The rock paintings at Hueco Tanks State Historic Site are the impressive artistic legacy of the different prehistoric peoples who found water, shelter and food at this stone oasis in the desert. Hidden within shelters, crevices and caves among the three massive outcrops of boulders found in the park, the art work is rich in symbolism and is a visual testament to the importance of graphic expression for the people who lived and visited the area."
