Labyrinth Day 15

Paper and Pencil.  An eleven circuit labyrinth.

I finally took a pass at making an eleven circuit labyrinth, patterned after the famous labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral in France.   For the October 3rd Communion installation I plan to use a modified seven-circuit labyrinth and so have focused mostly on the that pattern.  However, in getting to know the labyrinth, the feeling and spirit of it, I’ve wanted to spend at least a little time getting to know the mechanics of making one that is eleven circuit.  It’s such a complicated pattern, I can’t imagine tackling it on a beach without a lot more practice on paper.
