createGraphics()
The `createGraphics()` function generates off-screen graphics that can be drawn on the main canvas, allowing for complex compositions and effects without cluttering the main drawing surface. Creative coders often use it for layering visuals, creating textures, or generating images dynamically, enhancing their artistic expression. Imagine designing a beautiful digital painting where different elements are created separately and then combined seamlessly into the final artwork.
