Let’s Go Swimming!!!
I absolutely love to swim and love to be in and around the water.
Sarah Moon says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim and I can’t wait until my son is old enough to get in the water. He already loves bath time so I think we have a little fish in our family.
Carrye says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim. In fact, I have high hopes of having a pool of my own one day. Nothing fancy…just a small pool that’s preferably saltwater. That would be nice!
Emily says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love swimming and miss living in Florida where it is almost always pool-weather :)
Sarah says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I have always loved the world you find underwater and did a series of monoprints on this – I just love Samantha’s work!
Mali says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I learned how to swim recently…in time to do a Sprint Triathalon!!
Kerianne says
Lets go swimming!!
I love the water, I told my hubby that if he gets his new fancy garage than after that is paid off I get my pool. And I dont care if I live in the Seattle area and it only gets hot enough to swim like 5 times a year. I’m getting it!!
Valerie says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love the water for swimming, floating and everything else it has to offer!
Kris says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!

Leanne says
Let’s Go Swimming!
I’m just a toe dunker kind of gal myself, maybe a floater in mid-July when it’s super hot, but my husband was on the swim team in high school (which I playfully tease him about from time to time). A hairy chested guy in a speedo and swim cap just makes me chuckle. Since you purchased and hung your print I thought for his birthday this year I should absolutely buy a print from Samantha! What an ode to his “prime” as he’s now in his early 30’s, right? I think so!
LauraE says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING”
I love swimming, but aquafit specifically is my favourite!
Beth says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
I enjoy lounging by the pool and getting in to cool off, but am not a strong swimmer.
Olivia S. says
Let’s go swimming! Love to swim. Doing laps is one of my favorite workouts!
Erin B. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!

Libby says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I absolutely love being in the water…I can’t get enough of it!
Jenny says
Let’s go swimming! I love to swim, but not in pools. Freshwater is my fave!
Christina Marie says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I do swim, although I wouldn’t call myself a “swimmer.” I’m actually training for my first triathlon.
Cindy says
Let’s go swimming! There is nothing better then swimming on a warm evening in the pool!
Ashley says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Oh my word, I CAN’T WAIT FOR SUMMER. I would rather sit by the pool with some fruity drink and take a dip every once in awhile just to stay cool. Although tubing down Texas hill country rivers is probably my favorite way to enjoy the water.
Rebecca says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
During the summer my children turn into little brown fish we are in the pool and at the beach so much!
Shelby lanting says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I wish I was!!
Melissa says
LET’S GO SWIMMING. I am a swimmer – I swam competitively from the time I was four all through college. When I saw the print you chose for your kitchen I was like I MUST HAVE IT. And now look a chance to win it!!! =)
Linda Garcia says
Let’s go swimming! I love to swim. Laps, racing, floating or just fooling around makes me happy. That reminds me, I need to request information from the swim club around the block before the season is upon us!
Melissa S says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I do like swimming, but I am sort of a swimming snob. I will get in the ocean to snorkel, but not just to swim around. And if I am getting in a pool, the water needs to be really warm. Like, bathtub warm. All of my conditions drive my husband crazy.
Lesley L says
Let’s go Swimming!
We are signing our 3 yr old daughter up this summer. Now that she is fully potty trained. Woo hoo!
Kyla A. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I still love to swim, even after a decade of teaching swimming lessons. :)
Erin says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! And I love to swim. And I love the art!
Brittany says
LET’S GO SWIMMING. Am I a swimmer?? C’est dépend. I love swimming in crystal clear warm water on vacation and very hot days in the north east.
rachael says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love all kinds of swimming. jumping in to get a good workout with some laps, open water swim races or a nice relaxing day at the pool, playing around or laying out on a raft.
Sarah Elder says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I am not a great swimmer, but I will lay by the pool all day :)
Joy Schneider says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I grew up swimming at “The Rock.” It was the best swimming hole on the river and had a huge rock to jump off of into the water. Pools seem horribly dirty to me in comparison to swimming in a cold, clear river. I know most might disagree, but seriously… puddle vs. stream.
tina says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
I grew up on a lake, so I have always loved swimming and being in the water! Now 12 years later we have finally purchased our own house ON A LAKE! I can’t wait for my children to have the same experiences I did.
Kelly L says
Let’s go swimming! I’m a total water baby!
Chelsea Oesch says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love to go swimming and lay out with a cold drink in hand
Chantelle says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Some people are were dogs in their past lives, I’m certain I was a fish. Yes, I’m a swimmer! I love swimming laps and teaching my Hubbs to swim. This year, we WILL swim together!
PW says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Even though I’m averse to water, there are shark in there!
tiara says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!” grew up by the beach now live by a lake. i love open water
Bianca Hogan says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Nothing better than swimming in a warm ocean IMO. But then again, a nice cocktail while perched poolside with the sun your shoulders is very nice indeed…
PS: YAY for international giveaways!! Holla from the UK.
Whitney says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
My 5 year old and I spend every weekend at the pool. Our neighborhood is full of friends and we look so forward to the summers of cookouts and laughs!
Sarah P. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Love the lake over the pool, but I’ll take either when it’s 105 in Texas!
kim says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! – as long as it’s not too cold. I’m not into swimming laps but I do love the water.
sarah says
Let’s go swimming! I am lounger, not a swimmer! But I do love the pool :)
Tochi says
Lets Go Swimming! I loved to swim when I was a kid. Now I enjoy watching my dudes swim more.
Kristin says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I have been a competitive swimmer since the age of 7. I now do open water races instead of the pool but I live in Maine so the pool is where I do most of my training. I adore these prints and would love to have one!
jill says
LETS GO SWIMMING :) i was a competitive swimmer all my life and even was a collegiate swimmer :) i could DEF use this for my home!!
Anna says
I love water, but I hate swimming. Something about getting water up my nose is just not appealing!
Teri says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!! I love going to the pool so that I can sit and read a book while a lifeguard watches my kids… Just kidding… Kinda.
Danae says
Let’s go swimming! I was a swimmer in high school and more or less a fish my entire life – I LOVE the water!
Stacee says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I was a little fish growing up in the Midwest, where summers were hot and lakes and pools plentiful. Sadly, here in the Pacific Northwest, my kids are growing up rarely in the water. There’s just no excuse. Must get them in lessons this year!
