One of the drawings I submitted in a portfolio for my figure drawing class.

A drawing of a Black man resembling me. The edges of the paper were cut up withscissors to resemble cracked and shattered glass and the drawing depicts the reflection of the man reaching through the mirror and strangling his counterpart, cracking and breaking the glass in the process. The man in the real world is reaching towards some pills as he struggles against the strangulation of his reflection.
