August Abstract - Cave painting

I came across these scratches on an alley wall way back in March. The plastered yellow ocher wall was wet from the morning rain. I liked the slightly textured wall, the cracking plaster, the tones and above all the scratch marks which reminded me of the cave paintings in Altamira. This was taken in Gozo which is known as the island of the three hills. So this must have been a caveman who depicted the landscape for posterity. I thought it would make an interesting abstract.

Totally share your perspective on this wall. Imagination is a wonderful thing and I love the ideas and the colour and texture too.

It does make an interesting abstract, what a lovely find.

Great textures

Like the textures - and it could be a cave painting from this photo

I really like this image. Something very primative looking about it. So neat your compared it to cave paintings. I was lucky enough to tour the cave paintings in Spain back in the '70's before they closed them off to tourist. These colors are very reminiscent to their pallet.

@casablanca @onewing @linnypinny @milaniet @ljmanning @theredcamera thank you so much for your comments. I passed by the same wall a few days ago and the wall seemed to be bleached by the summer sun.

This is so intriguing- I love thinking about ancient man and what their lives were like
