IT AIN'T BEEN THERE BEFORE !


PUT SOMETHING IN

by Shel Silverstein, from A LIGHT IN THE ATTIC
Harper & Row 1988

Isn't this what we all do every Saturday for our Caturday Art creations?  We "put something in" ... and do our best to design and offer to our viewers and readers something "that ain't been there before"!

Often a crazy picture (pet oriented of course) to make our friends smile!  And those of you who are good with video/audio and YouTube delight us with those loony goony pet shorts that would never be as much fun as still shots.

Can't say I recall any comb-whistling (maybe one of you has that in the works?  Smol Oona I'm looking at you ...) ... but when all is said and done, whether it has been silly, sweet or beautiful ~

YOU HAVE PUT SOMETHING IN
and 
IT AIN'T BEEN THERE BEFORE!

  1. the baby is my favorite of the four and I love to put something in and do it almost every day, i dance across the floor, even to the music from commercials on TV and I have not whistled in a comb but have sung and hummed through one.. I had totally forgotten that. my dad taught me to do that.

  10. Well done. You certainly found a unique and artful way to do Dr. Seuss without using Seuss cartoons. It's a great message, too. By the way, I adore your March banner, too. You are the best photographer in the blogosphere. Hugs.
