Not All BCS Rock Art is Painted
Most Barrier Canyon Style (BCS) rock art examples are pictographs that have been painted on the rock using a red/orange/pink or white pigment. The Great Gallery in Horseshoe Canyon, the Buckhorn Draw and Head of Sinbad pictographs are classic examples.
However, I did run into a small example of a BCS petroglyph in Short Canyon. Petroglyphs were chipped or pecking into the stone using a harder stone as a chisel. The example below was very faint and only eight or ten inches small. But is certainly looks BCS to me.
