First perspective looking east, the second, looking west.
This Labyrinth in David Crombie Park was originally blue and green.
I repainted it in Gold.
That makes it hard to notice from afar,
Yet gold contrasts with the concrete grey and glows when up close . . .
I had previously re-painted my fading Green and Blue Labyrinth Lines in Gold.
It is hard to see from a distance,
Even hard to see in this photograph,
Yet a Gold Labyrinth can now be found in David Crombie Park,
If you know where and when to look . . .

Immediately north of the Basketball court,
You can see my Green & Blue colour painted Labyrinth in the top of the image.
I’m surprised with how visible it is !
It seemed dumb and arbitrary, but probably technically correct. At least it gave the three guys something to do. They mostly stand around in the middle of an empty field in a huddle.

Here are Toronto bylaw officers at Christie Pits having trouble maintaining social distance while ticketing persons using a park bench, which was not cordoned off, in an open park, while public health officials tell us of the importance of exercise and fresh air #COVID19 #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/NZWsIpioxi

Looking east over David Crombie Park in Old Town Toronto towards Downtown.
Look beyond Basketball wall and you may recognize the square outline of the green and blue Labyrinth I painted there last year . . .
“Everything But the Rain☔”, a four-piece band, is seen here jumping above the Labyrinth I recently painted in David Crombie Park . . .
Sometimes Young Wading Pool staffers turn on the vertical Fountain Geyser atop the Water Pump in the centre of Toronto’s Wading Pools.
Some of those wading pools have Labyrinths that I have painted in them.
This is Christie Pits Park . . .
The presence of water transforms the Labyrinth.
As much as the Labyrinth has transformed the Wading Pool . . .
Wading Pools double as Public Spaces where Toronto’s Little Ones can safely learn how to ride a bicycle, at their own pace, away from traffic.
Akin to kids learning taking their first steps safely in water, before entering the shallow ends of larger public swimming pools.
Wading Pools where I have painted Labyrinths, like this one in Eglinton Park in Midtown Toronto, become triply valuable…
Parents often use Toronto’s Wading Pools as training ground for bike ride training.
The painted lines which define my Wading Pool Labyrinths often become Lanes which kids learn to navigate . . .
