CAVE PAINTINGS

 Cave paintings have been around since early man. They were usually painted by certain people who were chosen by their tribe. They were mostly stick figures without many details. They used mostly the same dull colors. Cave paintings usually told a myth, story lesson, or history. They are located in many caves around Africa and Europe. They can sometimes take up the whole wall of caves. Early man used mostly primary and secondary colors that could be made with things found in nature.
