The next time that you go somewhere look down to see if they are having a good time with paving patterns. I would say what you find may not even compare to the level of attention and detail I saw here.

My friend Mark Painter Pariani shared with me this quotation by JRR Tolkein in respect to the importance of where we walk:

“It’s a dangerous business going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off too.”

Besides what was on the ground, the arrow sculpture (pictured with me below) was the most dramatic piece in the environment.
