The presence of water transforms the Labyrinth.
As much as the Labyrinth has transformed the Wading Pool . . .

It is challenging to both use one’s smartphone device and successfully walk a Labyrinth at the same time . . .
Friends don’t let Friends Walk Labyrinths with their devices in hand !
In the now removed wading pool in Bellevue Square Park, I had painted the concentric circles of that Labyrinth in a wavy twisty style.
The idea was to mimic the look of the Labyrinth under water, for when the wading pool was water-free, which was most of the year.
It didn’t work out so well visually, and walkably, without the water.
I never painted another Labyrinth like that again.
The arcs of my Wading Pool Labyrinth appear wavy in Christie Pits Park, that’s the water doing that.
The Labyrinth here is indeed comprised of concentric circles.
Heart in the centre of the three lane Classic Labyrinth I painted on Augusta Avenue in Kensington Market during the previous Pedestrian Sunday . . .
Walking the perimeter of my Wading Pool Labyrinth in Christie Pits Park, Toronto…
This was the final Labyrinth I painted on the July 2019 Pedestrian Sunday in Kensington Market.
It’s located on Kensington Avenue, placed mostly in front of a laneway exiting onto the street.
The asphalt is crackly and didn’t make a very good candidate for a Street Labyrinth canvas.
Yet because it is in front of a no parking zone, due to the laneway exit, it is an ideal location for a Labyrinth that can remain car-free at all hours outside of Pedestrian Sunday.
“Children never walk a Labyrinth, Children always Run…”
And sometimes they use a scooter !
Before Wading Pool season began this year in Toronto,
I repainted the faded arcs of my Labyrinth in Blue.
Grateful with how my Christie Pits Wading Pool Labyrinth looks filled with water . . .
Here is Duckman performing on Augusta Avenue during Pedestrian Sunday Kensington Market.
The Yellow colour of the Labyrinth I painted matches the Yellow of Duckman‘s Costume . . .
I painted this Labyrinth blue to match the colour of Frank Gehry’s Box atop the Art Gallery of Ontario at the north end of Grange Park . . .
Grown-up leading a first Labyrinth Walk with little ones in tow;
Perhaps, having shown the way, thereafter encouraging the kids to explore and play in the Labyrinth on their own?
Eventually, all ducklings leave the nest.
I painted this heart at the entrance of my Baltic Wheel Labyrinth Design on Kensington Avenue during the most recent Pedestrian Sunday in Kensington Market.
Round edges on either side of the Heart belong to the outer most turns during one’s Labyrinth walk . . .
Ships hunh?
Hmmm….
Has me wondering how well a remote control toy boat might navigate the Labyrinth in a Wading Pool filled with water?
