About The Book

Artist Katherine Wells's life story starts with an early interest in Native art and the petroglyphs of the Southwest that drew her to New Mexico and led to a major effort to preserve the iconic images she found on her own land.

About The Author

Katherine Wells is a mixed-media artist and founder of the Vecinos del Rio Mesa Prieta Petroglyph Project. After many years of work to protect the petroglyphs on Mesa Prieta, Wells recently gave the land described in Life on the Rocks to the Archaeological Conservancy. In 2005, she was awarded the Conservation and Preservation Award by the American Rock Art Research Association.
