X-Ray Style Australian Aboriginal Art

The X-Ray style of Australian Aboriginal art is a distinctive style that was developed thousands of years ago in Australia. Cave paintings of this type have been found in Arnhem Rock, in northern Australia (east of Darwin). These paintings seem to depict the outline of the animal plus diagrams of the bones and some internal organs. You can view all of the instructions, and see samples, here.
