Extended Major Project

So, the Extended Major Project has landed, 3 weeks have past and I've settled on my idea. My project will begin to research into the English language and idioms. I've collected many idioms, some with lots of scope to explore the literal and metaphorical meaning through illustration. I'm looking to illustrate the idioms with a new approach, looking at them from another angle. The idea needs grounding and purpose, so I was considering making a narrative out of the idioms. Perhaps applying idioms to newspaper articles and accompanying them with an illustration for each. By illustrating for newspaper stories I can set myself a limited area to fill, work with type and layouts.
