You can apply pressure and stroke on a Polaroid Time-Zero film while it’s developing to create unique “pola-paintings”. It seems to be a quite popular hobby. This a sample image from one of the many Time-Zero manipulated picture galleries I found:

General Chang

I made this portrait at a renaissance fair.
The gentleman was posed next to a tree to allow portrait
lighting from the western sky to light the mask of his
face. Becky manipulated his clothing and the background
which was green trees with some blue sky showing through.
The pink is from small reflections off of leaves from the
western sky. Virtually nothing was done to his face.

Polaroid even provides instructions on the technique on their own website.
