That's not really being 'negative', it's more being wary and realistic. Our brains are so inclined to see pictures and patterns, aren't they. Your mention of enhanced natural markings reminded me of the combination of pre-existing / accidental / deliberate marks and the interaction and feedback between them that help me myself make 'art' things, I thought that was interesting.


There's little doubt that the natural markings /configuration of cracks & fissures/holes /slope etc on rock surfaces have a big influence on the placement and type of motifs engraved by the "rock artists " .
