Let’s go swimming! Water, especially tropical turquoise water and I are very good friends! Especially when a pina colada is waiting for me after my soak!
Holly says
LET’S GO SWIMMING
Andrea says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I LOVE swimming! I used to be on a Master’s swim team before having my kiddos, I think teaching a child to swim is extremely important. YAY water!
Amber says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!! I’m a total fish!
elizabeth says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I LOVE her work — it reminds me of my childhood summers in Lousiaiana (where the only suitable outdoor place to be when it’s scorching hot is in water).
Meg says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!” …I love to swim! When I was younger I was a total water baby, it probably helped that I was born in July. Since then I’ve always been a little fish – and even swam in high school. I love doing under water flips and coming up to the surface feeling all dizzy. It’s a magical feeling, too, being weightless. I’ll swim in a pool or a lake but my favorite is the ocean. Body surfing waves is the best!!
Megan says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! It’s not summertime if I don’t get to laze around at the beach!
Cayla says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim and lounge beach or pool side with a book in my hand.

I’m not a great swimmer, but I am a professional sun-bather! (with sunscreen of course!)
Nell says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Swimming equals fun!
Jamie says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love water! I wished I lived near some form of water… but alas, being in Landlocked Colorado, I have to settle for large lakes instead, but I get to kayak anytime I want!
penny says
let’s go swimming, in my sisters pool in france, i haven’t seen her in a while so that would be just perfect !
Tricia Bulson says

Alicia Gostylo says
Let’s go swimming…at the beach. I love the ocean water!
Elizabeth G. says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!” I learned to swim competitively about 2 years ago in my journey to become a triathlete! Never thought I would enjoy swimming, but miracles DO happen :)

Jess says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
We have a pool in our backyard, and my son and husband LOVE it. I mostly enjoy the deck. But I do love these paintings!
Liz says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim; always have!
My mom’s brother drowned when he was 19, and so she was determined that me and my sister would be able to swim! We grew up with a pool in the backyard, lived at Sauble Beach on Lake Huron in the summers, and I was on my high school swim team! I’m more at home in the water than on land! :)
mary says

LET’S GO SWIMMING!
The water and I are definitely friends! I swam varsity in college, and I still love a good pool workout. I was a backstroker, so I’m loving the one with the girl in a blue suit on her back!
Kari says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!!! I do like swimming but I’m not very good! ;) It’s more of a get wet, cooled off and go back to tanning ;)

LoquaciousLaura says
Let’s go swimming! I like just hanging out in the cool water :)

LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love pool or beach time. I’m more of a play in the water to cool off, and then lounge with a good book.
Laura Adelman says

Lindsey d. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love swimming! Be it laps (I participate in triathlons) or just lounging, the water is where I love to be!
Dona says
LET’S GO SWIMMING. The best part of summer is having a pool to jump into when you just can’t take the heat anymore. My kids will swim at any temp, but I prefer when the weather is hot! hot! hot! Otherwise, I can lay, stand, read, think, walk or run on the edge of a lake, a beach, a pool all day long. :)
sdao says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I’m at least 50% fish:)
Maria says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love the water! Usually I just lay in a raft and have a drink, but it is a personal goal of mine to compete in a triathlon. I just need to learn how to swim fast!
Lydia Rose says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Best swim ever: breaking the thick ice on the Mixed Pond on Hampstead Heath in London for a wintery dip. Yes, a pond you can swim in. Can’t beat swimming surrounded by herons and woodland.
Robyn says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I’m more of a pool lounger. I wish I had the stamina to do laps, and a pool at my gym to do laps in..
mariam says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Samantha’s art reminds me of that first incredible splash when you first dive into the water. Cold bubbles tickling your skin. The shock of wet all over your body. And the cleansing feeling of covering your body with little wet molecules. Just like that first dive, her art is refreshing!! I would love it on my bathroom wall!
Emily H. says
Let’s go swimming!
I love swimming in lakes and laying in the hot sun to dry off!
Éva says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love water and am an art enthusiast, too!
Pauline says
LET’S GO SWIMMING
I love the water, although I’d prefer a lake to a pool anyday.
