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.

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.

A digital collage self-portrait of the artist Sabrina Tirvengadum  illustrated in neon green, blue, and pink tones with Photoshop tool icons, on a purple-patterned background. The use of neon colours and details such as the green face and pink hair give the impression of an artificial portrait. Sabrina, a woman with long wavy hair, has her arms crossed behind her neck and looks with a neutral expression.  She is wearing a long-sleeved top with an intricate pattern in which details such as flowers, leaves and the sun are recognisable.
