A black and white self-portrait of the artist Akile Nazlı, drawn with pencil. Nazlı is in the centre of the illustration. She has big dark colored curly hair, in big circular shapes around her head. Her eyes are looking at the right side of the picture, making her look as if she is thinking about something. Her face is neutral and a little bit sad. She wears a sweater with  a crew neck.

A digitally created self-portrait illustration of the artist Sophie Kamlish, using block colours and solid lines. Sophie, a white woman with a brown bob and glasses, wears a long-sleeved orange top, teal trousers and pale blue and yellow striped socks. Her right foot is missing, and she uses her knee to balance a light blue drawing book and yellow pencil. She is smiling and looking down at the drawing book. The background is black, which contrasts against all the colourful objects, animals, patterns and symbols filling it up.

An self-portrait illustration of Jhinuk, as a female figure from torso upwards wearing a long-sleeved top, drawing in inky line with white ink on a blue ink-washed background. The female is carrying a brain in her right arm (in the arm facing us on the left), and she is looking downwards toward the floor. Behind her head are some hand-drawn words: 'How do I hold my head up in public now?'.
