I stumbled upon this a few days ago - The Bradshaw figures or Gwion Gwion. They are not in Baja, but in the Kimberly region of remote NW Australia
(unfortunately a very difficult place to access).

Part of the mystery is that they bare little resemblance to other cave art from the indigenous tribes of this region or elsewhere in Australia. When
asked about the origins of the paintings, local tribesmen had this to say:
"Long ago Kujon a black bird, painted on the rocks. He struck his bill against the stones so that it Bleed, and with the blood he painted. He painted
no animals, only human-shaped figures which probably represent spirits,” (Schultz, Agnes (1956). "North–west Australian rock paintings". Memoirs of
the National Museum of Victoria 20: 1–36).
