LET”S GO SWIMMING!
The best part of summer is swimming at the lake with my dogs. Watching them be completely happy and exhausted!
Taylor says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! The beach is my favorite place to be in the summer!
Sarah says
LET’S GO SWIMMING1
Although I have taught swimming lessons for ten years and love being in the water, I much prefer a leisurely swim to laps. And I also enjoy taking water aerobics classes, which are a really good workout!
Anya says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I can’t wait for summer so I can start swimming outdoors again!
Keisha says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love her artwork, & I have loved the beach and to swim since I could walk. I used to spend hours and hours diving for fresh water clams in a lake near where I grew up as a kid, and I used to try to race the lifegaurds doing laps across the lake. As an adult, I prefer salt water to fresh, but I love both. The ocean’s waves crashing on the shore is the best sound in the world. Now that my daughter is 3, I can see her love for all things water developing, and it is such a reminder of my wonderful childhood memories.
Hanna says
G’day from Australia.
Lets Go Swimming!!!! – we are a family of water babies! we love the pool, beach and rivers. Even if its a wading pool in the backyard, we are all in!
Matt says
LET’S GO SWIMMNING! I don’t really love to swim, but my wife does,and I love her, and she loves Samantha Frank’s work, so I hope I win so I can surprise her with a print for our 8th wedding anniversary.

“LET’S GO SWIMMING!”
i enjoy swimming but i’m much more of a water park person. ever since i saw ‘blank check’ and that lucky 12 yr. old got a water slide inside his house it’s been my life’s dream.

Ellen Rush says
Let’s Go Swimming!
I LOVE swimming in pools, the ocean, lakes pretty much anywhere and I always have. I also have a new ensuite bathroom and the wall above the soaking tub is just crying out for a Samantha print of someone glazing through the water or shooting off the wall out of a tumble turn – thanks for the change to own one of these beauties
Erin C. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Always been a water baby. I’m pretty sure I could swim before I could walk. ;)
Susan says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim in the pool or at the beach, oddly though I do not like to swim in a lake. I keep imagining Loch Ness-like monsters. I really don’t even like to sit on the dock at the lake.
Mahal says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love swimming. Even found a pool to do laps in when I was out of town for business lately!!
Tania Richardson says
Lets go swimming…… With my 13yr old because that is where you will find us 15hrs a week. Lap after lap.
Marta says
Let’s go swimming…oh, how I’d love to swim among the beauties in Sam’s canvases! The soothing blues, pops of orange and strokes of crisp white create a world I wouldn’t mind being trapped in.
Jenb says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!” I spent all summer at the pool when I was younger. Swim team and hanging out every other hour I could. These really remind me of that time.
Bronwyne says
LETS GO SWIMMING I am not a lover of swimming in public and live to far away from the beach. Would love a swimming pool at home but alas I can’t see that happening anytime in the near future.
Claire says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I’m not a great swimmer, but I like to splash around.

LETS GO SWIMMING!! I live in western Australia- it would be almost impossible to not love swimming!

LET’S GO SWIMMING!! I love swimming, but would rather have my own private pool (just dreaming) or I love swimming at Shasta Lake too! Great place to water ski!-Thanks for the great giveaway!
Heather says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love the water so much that I can’t keep it out of my nose and lungs. Every time!
Rebie says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I used to be a fish when I was a kid but got pinned underwater in a busy pool and ever since then I’m afraid of the water.
Dora Taylor says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love swimming now…although I didn’t learn to swim until I was probably 13! Yikes. That seems really old to me. We have a pool in our backyard, and three kids 5, 12, and 14 that love swimming too.
Bethany Annechino says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love the water. I would go swimming every single day if I could. (Three times a day if it wasn’t a chlorine pool!) I did water aerobics when I was 17 because it sounded way better than the alternative… jazzercise. I am wanting to do it again, though, because I have early on-set degenerative arthritis and my joints can’t handle a workout with any big impact on them, but I need the cardio. And an hour of water aerobics is amazing cardio, if you didn’t know!
Kelly says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I found out a few weeks ago from my mother that I swam my first 25m lap when I was 4!
Elaine says
LET’S GO SWIMMING… I love to swim (always have and always will) and to play around and take underwater shots… shame mine could never come out this good! :D
Sara says
LET’S GO SWIMMING……..
Holly Mullins says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I have always loved the water and my dream is to have a pool one day. It’s great for beating the Texas heat. The funny thing is, I was just looking at these prints on Etsy last night…I hope I win!
Tasmin says
LET’S GO SWIMMING I love to swim and hope my daughter continues to love the water
lindsay says
“let’s go swimming” is probably one of the phrases i’ve used most in my life. i took swimming lessons throughout my entire childhood and even became a certified lifeguard. i was raised on a gorgeous lake and spent almost every minute of everyday in the water during the summers. i now live in sicily, italy and still try to spend as much time as possible at the beach and in the sea.
Frida says
Summer’s getting closer. LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Isabel says
Let´s go swimming!
I love the water, as long as it´s a warm day and I don´t have to go anywhere in a hurry
Kim Simon says
I love these prints and one would look great in our fresh modern beach-style family room. I spent 7 years as a lifeguard and swim instructor and still love to swim and visit the beach as often as possible. Thanks for posting these, I loved her Etsy shop.
Anna says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim and snorkel and used to be on my school’s swim team. Can’t wait for my summer vacation!
Kate O'Loughlin Hornung says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I LOVE TO SWIM IN A POOL RATHER THAN A LAKE OR POND!
Rachel Burlingame says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I feel at complete peace when I’m swimming. I wasn’t able to swim at all last summer for various reasons. This summer, however, I am able, and I am so thankful!
Andrea says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!!! I love to lazily float around in the pool!

Juliana says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
I used to swim when I was in high school and I enjoyed so much… I have thinking about going back to old times (and old shape too :-D).
