The Nuevo Tolima rock art panel features a variety of geometric and figurative motifs. In the lower left, geometric patterns resemble cordage. The upper left depicts a jumping deer with vertical parallel finger dots. The lower right shows a therianthrope with human legs, a deer tail, winged arms, and a serpent head. The right central part displays a large figure with raised hands. Note the varying colours in the paintings from reds to yellows, which is not usual in the rock art of La Lindosa.
