Well, I've drawn, painted, scratched 100 faces, and am just beginning. This sweetheart is number 90-something. I followed Jane Davenport's online class, The Whimsical Face, in which she demonstrates front, side, and profile faces, in her own fanciful style.
Draw oval with colored pencil
Divide into quarters
Place eyes, nose (a circle), top lip (looks like mustache)
Slanted lines extend eyes
Iris is circular
Small curve denotes bottom lip
Background from torn tissue paper,
adhered with Liquitex matte medium
Rose cheeks, flesh color skin, hair is gesso
Bottom of nose curves
Chin, temple indentations
Lips
Top lip is darker
Highlights on bottom lip, bridge of nose, brow bone
Shadow at side of nose, eyes, under chin
Eyes have color and shadow
Pupil and hair to be added
