The photograph below shows a pair of figures, which are the only Bradshaw rock art we found with barred bodies, these paintings were named the Zebra Figures. The middle painting depicts how many of the tiny Bradshaw figures have detailed fingers, that must have been created with very fine brushes. The astronaut Wandjina figure is 5 feet high, and was found in 1981 on our first Australian expedition to the Kimberley. It is on Mt Jameson near the Arch.
