Hohokam rock art at the South Mountain Preserve, Phoenix, Arizona.
This is not the most dramatic petroglyph panel on South Mountain, but it is still a little gem. On any rock, around any bend on any trail, you might find a few images, chipped and scraped into the rock varnish. They are ubiquitous but hidden – and a small reward for paying close attention to one’s surroundings.

I’m making final preparations for the Downtown Chandler Art Walk tonight, where I’ll be displaying this rendering of a mountain lion and other scratchboard illustrations. This original work is inspired by a petroglyph on view at the Painted Desert Inn at the Petrified Forest National Park in northeastern Arizona. You can click through to buy this item, or browse other selections in my Etsy shop.

I see this glyph on every visit to the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, and so far I haven’t been able to find any information about it. It is displayed in the oldest part of the gardens, and could be a Hohokam petroglyph relocated from elsewhere in the valley. The garden was established in 1937 – a time when relics were still collected without restraint or scruple. It could as easily be a modern replica. If anyone has any insight or info, I’ll be grateful if you pass it on.
