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.

In the self-portrait illustration of the artist İpek, a girl with long, orange hair captures our picture using a blue camera. With one hand, she presses the shutter button, while the other adjusts the lens. Her hands are a light, pale orange, and she wears a blue-green sweater. In the background, there is a softly textured sky in a light pinkish hue. The wind tousles her hair in both directions and atop her head, an orange snail gazes to the right. Five blue birds ascend on the right side in the snail's line of gaze. Just below them, a single dandelion flower tilts to the right in the air. The stem of the dandelion is blue, with a spherical flower, and pale pink seeds extend from thin blue stems at its center. A brown rabbit sits with its back turned, on the girl's hair flowing to the left. To the right of the rabbit, two blue, soft-textured clouds hover in the light pink sky.
