Answer 1

Cameo portraits were usually done in profile and made in one color. While they could be carved from different materials, they are most commonly associated with cameos made from materials like shell, onyx, or hardstone, rather than exclusively marble. They were also sometimes used for sealing letters. Therefore, the best responses would be done in profile and made in one color.
