Self Portraits Done on Different Drugs

I think it's really interesting how different drugs affect us in different ways. Alcohol makes us feel confident, marijuana can make us feel either great and relaxed or sketchy and paranoid. Mushrooms make us trip as well as LSD, but they are two different kinds of trip. Here are some self portraits that the same person did while on different drugs (at different times).

"Bryan Lewis Saunders, an artist from Washington DC, has drawn over 8,000 self portraits – one for every
day of the last 21 years – and has taken a shitload of drugs in that time, too."

wow...thats some trippy stuff

Yeah! I didn't even post them all. This guy's definitely had a wide array of experiences with life!

The bath salts image is frightening. Can't imagine what goes on in the brain of someone on salts.

I know! Thank you for re-steeming! :)

I like it so much... very good.. you have skill as photographer

This is not my original work @joe28.

Those Portraits Are Eerily Beautiful In An Apocalyptic Way ! But The Scariest To Me Is The Bathsalts Picture ! He Looks Like A Zombie Ready To Attack And Eat Somebody !

Agreed man. I wonder if this dude had a "handler" for any of these experiences. If I were to ever do this type of thing, I would almost certainly require one to make sure I don't do anything violent and reckless. Cheers!

The mushrooms one has to be the best. All great tho!!!!!

Definitely one of my favorites!

Ouch. It's a good thing he didn't take... poison!
😵 💀

Lol well some of those things are toxic like what he was huffing.

Poor guy.. in some of them he looks wild. I am surprised he is able to draw. Lighter fluid??? I can think of better drugs than lighter fluid. Not someone you would want to invite over to paint. LOL
