The Synchronized Swimmers




A playful tribute to Esther Williams. I dreamt of being in her dizzying troop as a young girl, amazed at her under water skills & ability to hold her breath for such long intervals. If we ever met in person, I just know we'd get along swimmingly.
See the "Bathing Beauty" at work in this clip.
This painting is available. Feel free to inquire.
