Labyrinths within Labyrinths – Wading Pool Labyrinth – Christie Pits Park – Toronto

Many of my Labyrinths include canvas spaces at the turn-arounds for additional artwork. Often I create or paint smaller Labyrinths within the canvas spaces within the larger Labyrinth. Akin to the driving plot point in the movie Inception, Labyrinths within Labyrinths.

Wading Pools in Toronto’s Public Parks are much more than simply small scale swimming pools for little ones.

They can double as Labyrinths after I paint them.

When a little older, kids on skateboards may go round and round and round my wading pool Labyrinths.

One boarder told me how my Labyrinth lines help in his situational awareness when enjoying his ride.

Wading Pools are often used by parents to teach their children how to ride a bicycle.

Ergo, A Velodrome for Tricycles and Push Bikes!

Rainy day brings good luck right? Today's weekly #netwalking at @shecosystem was totally inspiring.

This is the Wading Pool Labyrinth I painted, choosing blue for the circuits. You can enjoy walking in Riverdale Park West, just steps away from the animals in front of the Riverdale Farm / Zoo.
