Elizabeth Peavy says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
Of all the inspiration your blog gives me, this painting has popped back in my mind the most frequently. For as long as I can remember, swimming during the summer has been my biggest source of happiness–true contentedness. Even as an adult now, when I dive into the water, those few minutes of gliding in a pool or ocean make me feel like the same magical mermaid I was when I was 6. These paintings just speak to me! LOVE! xoxox
Lauren says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim and am (hopefully) going to do my first triathlon this summer!
