The Idioms Collection is a series of four illustrations that embraces a surrealist style to analyze common idioms through the theme of mental health.
Enduring revisions, both in its design and themes used, the idea of the collection ultimately resonated best with a positive angle, focusing on the inner strength to carry on, persevere, and recognize the path that continues ahead.
All illustrations were created in Procreate and edited in Adobe Photoshop.
