Medium: Pencil, Oil pastel
Use your understanding of facial features and the structure of the the human head to create a color drawing of a character: head, neck, and shoulders, with exaggerated proportions and expression. The face should be a straight-on view. Design the page. Draw first with pencil, lightly. Show light and shade, and the nuances of color, using oil pastel. Use physical pressure to make rich color, and blend colors. Remember, exaggerate, be expressive, and be playful in your approach!
Look at the somewhat distorted portraits of Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani and French painter Chaim Soutine for inspiration.
