A 'simple' p5 tutorial for you creative coders
Recording the x,y positions when you draw in a buffer / Array
To keep track where things are drawn on the screen And use these new positions, as a platform-start to draw other shapes.
It's an easy / fun trick to keep track of things you've drawn on the screen
I use this trick as well in 3D; for like drawing trees, then the branches and leaves
