HOME /Fossil Replicas on Stone /Landscape /Navajo Sandstone Art /Portraits /Prehistory /Wildlife

Fossil replicas are a spin-off of Navajo Sandstone Art, utilizing local Canadian stone (B.C. shale and charmin) instead of sandstone from the southwest. None of the fossils you'll see on this page are authentic fossils; they're all bonafide fakes - acrylic paint on rock.
