Aw Shucks.
And Thank you!
Aw Shucks.
And Thank you!
My Stone Labyrinth is both a Neighbourhood Labyrinth and a City Labyrinth.
Neighbouhood being Olympic Village and South False Creek.
The City being Vancouver.
A skateboard who makes use of the Christie Pits Wading Pool as a “velodrome” once shared with me how he appreciated the painted lines of my Labyrinth.
It improved Situational Awareness as he boarded round and round in circles having fun . . .
Thank you, Again, Khristine!
Always nice to see you!

The Heart in The Centre of the Labyrinth I painted in Robson Square, Downtown Vancouver…
I was working on this Chalk Labyrinth Saturday evening, along the seawall, north of Science World and west of Creekside Park.
First time making a Labyrinth in this exact location . . .
Wasn’t quite sure the location was ideal, yet people did appreciate it, and it turned out okay.
Still want to go back and finish it though.
It used to be that when I searched online for “Labyrinths” and ““Islam“, almost nothing turned up, except my own blog posts, and my own images.
Recently, I am stumbling upon posts and images like this with increasing frequency…
بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم
وَعَلَى الثَّلَاثَةِ الَّذِينَ خُلِّفُوا حَتَّىٰ إِذَا ضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَرْضُ بِمَا رَحُبَتْ وَضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ وَظَنُّوا أَنْ لَا مَلْجَأَ مِنَ اللَّهِ إِلَّا إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ تَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ لِيَتُوبُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ
#سورة #توبة
آیه ۱۱۸“In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
“And the three who were left behind to the point that the earth closed in on them in spite of its vastness and their souls confined them and they were certain that there is no refuge from Allah except in Him.
“Then He turned to them so they could repent.
“Indeed, Allah is the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful.”
– Qur’an : Chapter/Sūrat At-Tawbah (The Repentance) Verse (9:118)
Never been called an Umbrella man before!
I like this image.
The Squares, the Umbrellas, the fading outline of my Chalk Labyrinth . . .
Hey, that’s me in the background chalking one the dozen Heart Aglets in this Labyrinth!
I have so few photographs of myself making Labyrinths, that I always appreciate when I discover them.
Thank you Alice!
“Trying to leave a Masjid while others are praying”
Okay, I found that funny, as would any Muslim…
Youll never know a real maze until you are trying to leave the mosque while some people are still praying #thestruggle
