"One old man in Arnhem Land remembered being carried as a child on his father's shoulders as his father climbed up a log leaning against a rock wall. His father then sprayed his hand with red ochre against the rock, leaving a stencil he could still recognize many years later. The main function of the stencils was to record people's presence and association with a site." Aboriginal Art Online
Second grade students studied the Aborigine Art of Australia. They traced their own hand and painted dots in the style of many of traditional bark paintings in Australia.
