Performance artist, painter and poet Bryan Lewis Saunders wasn’t joking around when he announced he was going to draw self-portraits of himself while on various types of drugs. Saunders didn’t just sample the low-key stuff, he tried meth, cocaine, bottles of cough syrup, Adderall, computer dusters and many, many more.

These self-portraits are the results.

Bryan Lewis Saunders is a visual artist, musician and brain addled fucking dopefreak genius. Don’t stare at his self-portraits for too long or they’ll invade your soul like a swarm of amphetamine-crazed humming birds. Saunders’ approach to the demons inside his head is to unscrew the lid.

On March 30th 1995, I started doing at least one Self-Portrait everyday for the rest of my life. At present I have over 7,900 of them. Like fingerprints, snowflakes and DNA they are all different, no two are the same.  For hundreds of years, artists have been putting themselves into representations of the world around them. I am doing the exact opposite. I put the world around me into representations of myself as I find this more true to my Central Nervous System.”
