How to Draw Labyrinths

I created these video tutorials to further my understanding of these basic patterns. Eventually I hope to have examples of every design, but I start with the simplest and smallest examples.

#1) Draw a 7-Circuit Classical Labyrinth from the seed pattern (video at right)

#2) Draw 3 & 5 Circuit Classical Labyrinths from the seed pattern (not what you might expect!)

Three and five circuit labyrinths have been rising in popularity, especially for those who have limited time, budgets, or space. For decades the seed pattern for drawing the simplified Classical pattern has been taught with a cross and four dots. A couple of essential aspects are sacrificed, however, and I have been studying other methods.

#4) Draw 3&5 Circuit Odd-Shaped Classical Variations (squares, hearts, stars, hexagons)

#3) Draw 3 & 5 Circuit Concentric Classical Labyrinths (based on circles -- easier for building)
