A longtime resident of Arizona, he possesses a unique ability to view an image etched directly onto a rock surface that artists chiseled and hammered to create petroglyphs. The process involved chipping off the desert varnish (or patina) on the rock, revealing the lighter rock underneath.

Join us for an enlightening evening with Richard Gonsalves, President of the Agave House Chapter of the Arizona Archaeological Society.
