That's a very great eye! Stretching the normal size to make it look more emotional is a neat trick.
I also like the hand reaching out, and being able to see that it belongs to the same person with the eye.

Thanks! this was actually an English assignment, so everything (including the enlarged iris) is supposed to mean something symbolic. Thanks for noticing.

Ah, what does each thing symbolize?

Hmm... lets see if I remember... The actual project was to make a collage that represented you, but I decided to interpret it differently (which got me a really good grade lol).
The eye itself symbolizes me seeing things differently than others (which is ironic because I did the project so differently form the instructions).
Enlarged iris: means I have a wider view of things than most
Hand outstretched: my aspirations
Torn cheek: it's a mask (everything fake), or damaged
Darkened area he's reaching towards: fate/the unknown
there was also some other stuff but I either erased it or forgot... lol.

Your detail work is very impressive. The "tearing" in the bottom right is another really neat touch.
