Digital BW, The Print

I met an artist not too long ago that was actually painting on rock, 
using some of the same material used thousands of years ago…material 
like bone marrow, not exactly available at your local art store. Not 
only can you pass her artwork down to your children, but possibly to 
the next evolution after human. ;<)

Cheers, Mark
