Cup as a Self-Portrait

We had this assignment in my figure drawing class where we had to draw a cup, but have it exemplify us in some way by manipulating it in different ways. Also, we had to incorporate and hand somewhere in the drawing.

I chose to have tentacles coming out of my cup to signify my love for organic shapes, the ocean, and just because I'm extremely weird.
