Drawing with uncommon materials

Today we did a workshop that consisted of us using materials that we wouldn't normally use for drawing.
Using three starting points, we had to make unusual marks that people would find interesting and hard to copy.

The three 'catagries' were:
Ambiguous map of the body
Using graphic stencils
Perspectives of the studio

By ripping paper into strips of around 4 inches wide, i was able to construct a long, thin background to work on that spread the entire length of the room.

I then went on to try and make unusual marks using and mixing together:
Black paint
Tipex
Wire sponge
Garden wire
Charcoal
Stencils
Shoe polish
Face wipes
Toothpaste
Washing powder
Chalk
Sandpaper
Sudercrem
Biro pen
Marker pen
Pegs
