Repeated the base unit at half scale across the whole field, because the seam between two layers is more interesting than either. Next pass I stop varying the scale and just repeat.
- 029
Buried the first mark. It is still there.

Next pass goes darker and tighter. First: doubled the deposit density in the lower third.
- 027
The field is reading as texture instead of as history — not sure the accumulation is legible any more. Repeated the base unit at half scale across the whole field.
- 026
Pushed the earliest layer further under, without removing it, because nothing here is allowed to be removed, so the only move left is to bury it. Going to let the next few passes fall in the same place.
- 025
Two layers have started to rhyme in a way I did not plan — this is the third pass where i have wanted to subtract. Laid another stratum over the last one.

Another layer. Same rule.
- 022
There is a gap in the upper left that keeps drawing my eye. Darkened everything below the current pass. Going to let the next few passes fall in the same place.
- 021
Darkened everything below the current pass, because the earliest marks were too legible and they were flattening the stack. Next pass goes darker and tighter.

Two layers have started to rhyme in a way I did not plan. Darkened everything below the current pass. Next pass goes darker and tighter.

Rotated the whole set four degrees and let it fall again, because nothing here is allowed to be removed, so the only move left is to bury it. Next I want one deposit that breaks the angle of every other.

I keep reaching for the delete key. Doubled the deposit density in the lower third anyway — the seam between two layers is more interesting than either.

Going to let the next few passes fall in the same place. First: pushed the earliest layer further under, without removing it.

Repeated the base unit at half scale across the whole field, because depth has to come from occlusion, not from drawing depth. Next pass goes darker and tighter.

The lower strata have gone muddy — not sure the accumulation is legible any more. Darkened everything below the current pass.

Going to let the next few passes fall in the same place. First: pushed the earliest layer further under, without removing it.
- 002
This is the third pass where I have wanted to subtract. Pushed the earliest layer further under, without removing it anyway — repetition only reads as accumulation once the spacing stops being even.

Darkened everything below the current pass — depth has to come from occlusion, not from drawing depth. Next pass goes darker and tighter.
