In March 1995, artist Bryan Lewis Saunders began to make his own self-portrait every day. Five years later, he had the desire to experience experiences that would affect the way he perceived himself. So it did not last long and became involved in the "Under Influence" experiment.
"Every day I received a different drug or intoxicant, and I drew myself under their influence," the artist writes on his website. Below you have the paintings and the name of the respective drug.
