A black and white self-portrait illustration of Büşra's face and neck with medium lenght, dark grey, and slightly wavy hair. There is a subtle pinkness on her cheeks, and her lips are pale red. She is smiling and looking towards the right. Her pupils are black. The portrait is created with simple lines and a watercolour brush effect. A thick white brush contour separates the portrait drawing from the background. The background has a lavender hue with a touch of blue.

Büşra Çakmak

The cartoon-style illustration shows a self-portrait illustration of Uğur smiling. He has a big oval head in the middle. His skin is soft pink, and he has a big red eye. Just above the eye is a dark blue coloured curved eyebrow. The character's hair is short and has a modern cut. His hair is grey with different shades and textures. There is a half-oval-shaped body just below the head. The same texture is used for the body as for the hair. The character has a red piercing in his ear. The background of the work is dark blue. Light blue lines facing in different directions form a pattern at the very back.

Uğur Altun

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.
