Drawings
'Perceive' is to see, recognize, or receive something sensually.
'Interpret' is to analyze, try to comprehend and explain something into any form.
I, personally, prefer the drawing of myself since I was able to look at details o my actual face while I was drawing.
Most of the time I symbolize detailed features of someone with something. To illustrate, if the person I drew has a heart-shaped lips, I would rather just draw it roughly as a heart. Just simple as that :D
It's more comfortable and easier for me to draw my face since I've seen it for 17years. LOL
