Why Underpaint
A COLLABORATIVE ARTWORK HAS MORE THAN ONE AUTHOR.
BasePaint records each paint action on Base. Underpaint decodes those stroke records into a human-readable layer: who touched which pixel, when they did it, and how hundreds of actions accumulated into one daily image.
Final artwork remains BasePaint's CC0 canvas. Underpaint is simply a lens over the history already there.
