And unlike most other platforms, I greatly appreciate the freedom of the <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/Fediverse?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a>, including the lack of data collection, or the lack of algorithms dictating what we see, think or feel. <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/HelloPixelfed?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HelloPixelfed</a>. <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/GoodbyeDeviantArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GoodbyeDeviantArt</a>.<br> <br> This is more of a <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/photomanipulation?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#photomanipulation</a> than a <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/digitalpainting?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#digitalpainting</a> - though there are touch ups.

And now I reflect on how much has changed. Though I have experienced <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/dark?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dark</a> days, I have also learned the value and necessity of finding meaning (i.e., finding <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/alifeworthliving?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#alifeworthliving</a>). This can be anything from arts, nature, crafts, activities, hobbies, meditation, relationships and so on. Reflecting back on 2012, I am happy to say that life is much more bright nowadays.

However, things have changed over the years - the latest being the implementation of AI. <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/AIhasDestroyedArtPlatforms?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AIhasDestroyedArtPlatforms</a>. I have been reluctant to share new art there. I can no longer find enjoyment in finding new artists there because the majority of new submissions are AI-generated and flooding the system.

Anyhoo, I am grateful for discovering <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/Pixelfed?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pixelfed</a>.

Its meant to symbolize the magic of spiders and their divine craftsmanship. <br> <br> I love the quote: "Weave your creative threads in the dark, and then when the sun hits them, they will glisten with intricate beauty." (Ted Andrews)<br> <br> This creation was originally inspired by recurring <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/dreams?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dreams</a> of spiders which I interpreted as a reminder to restore balance in my hectic lifestyle, to take control and weave my fate, and reacquaint myself with my <a href="https://pixelfed.art/discover/tags/creativity?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#creativity</a> once more.
