125: Revisiting Old Work: The Prints You Forgot Might Be the Ones That Move You Forward


Listen Later

What if your next collection didn’t require starting from scratch?

In this episode, we’re exploring a mindset shift that could change the way you approach your portfolio, your pitch, and even your creative process.

Instead of chasing new ideas, Leslie invites you to look inward—to revisit the sketches, motifs, and half-finished prints that may already hold the clarity, connection, and style you’ve been looking for.

You’ll learn:

  • Why constantly creating new art can become a form of avoidance
  • How to recognize the value in work you’ve already made
  • A simple way to organize and re-engage with your “creative backlog”
  • What buyers actually respond to—and why your existing work might already be ready
  • How to refine, recolor, and reposition your prints to make them pitch-ready

This episode is your reminder that you don’t always need more art—just more intention.
