Good morning all!

Idioms...who does not like them! I was re-introduced to them during the week, which got me thinking...how about being very literal in the way we interpret them in our artworks? Am I pulling your leg??

So this week’s art prompt is all about Idioms: so write stories with them, draw them, write a song with them ....They are the cat's pajamas, so give them a whirl!


Enjoy the journey,

Isabelle
