A large hairy white man has gritted teeth and hunched shoulders while they furiously doodle a simple self-portrait on a drawing tablet. The scene is drawn with cartoon lines and coloured in various shades of rust. The artist has large glasses, thick wavy hair, and a full beard. They are dressed in a waistcoat with a pocket square, and a button down shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Strong squiggly energy lines emanate from them as they scribble.

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?'.

In this digital self-portrait, Laura's stylised head is illustrated with black ink against a flat baby-pink background. A girl tilts her head playfully but is shy, sticking out a tiny tongue and featuring big manga eyes with sparkles. Three lines on her cheek represent a slight blush. Big squared glasses frame her eyes, filling half of her face. She has a tiny pointy line as a nose and big ears adorned with an earring. A headscarf adorned with hair clips is pinned behind her shiny black inked hair, which includes a side fringe curled at the end.
