Another one of my Wading Pool Labyrinths popping up online . . .

This time it’s the one I painted in the tiny wading pool in Geary Avenue Parkette, at the west end of the park at the foot of Deleware Street North, in Toronto.

Many times, I didn’t paint my name into the Labyrinth, but this is one of those times I did.

The darker green circle aglets are holding their colour, yet the lighter green concentric circles of the Labyrinth could use a new brightening coat of re-painting.

…Added to my ever-expanding to-repaint list for my next trip to Toronto!

Some years back in Toronto when I was RE-Painting my Labyrinth in the Wading Pool in the middle of Christie Pits Park, a father of two young boys was surprised to finally meet me.

He had a seven year old and a four year old.

His then four year old had learned to walk by using the lanes of my Labyrinth.

His older brother, who was all of three years old at the time, would spend an hour by himself walking and re-walking and re-walking the Labyrinth.

That hour of parent-free direct attention allowed the dad to focus on his youngest, helping his toddler to learn to walk.

The father told me that they as a family had been walking the Labyrinth almost everyday that they could for the past four years.

I was speechless. I became unusually self-conscious as the Father wanted to snap a photograph of me standing with paintbrush in the Labyrinth.

It was one of the most profound moments during my journey in my City of Labyrinths Project.

Among my signatures in the Labyrinths I design and make, are empty canvas spaces created in-between the turn-arounds.

Among my signatures in the Labyrinths I design and make, are empty canvas spaces created in-between the turn-arounds.

Often in those canvas spaces, I draw or chalk or paint a smaller Labyrinth design inside.

In my online and real life Labyrinth journeys, I have only ever encountered two or maybe three instances that someone else had made use of this concept.

So, it’s mine. I call dibs. I claim this.

When you see canvas spaces within Labyrinths in Toronto, Vancouver, and elsewhere in the world where I have made and placed semi-permanent Labyrinths, you’ll know it’s one of mine.

It’s among my design signatures.

Labyrinths within Labyrinths within Labyrinths . . .

This image is good close-up of one of them within my Christie Pits Park Wading Pool Labyrinth in Toronto.

Thankful that I did three coats of paint the last time I repainted, two years ago.
