I like where my work is at right now, but I see things I've done a few months ago that can be pushed a lot further. I believe, as an artist in the digital age, there's no such thing as pushing a work too far. Scan it, print it, paint it, photograph it, collage it, paint things out, paint things in, flip, crop, expand, add gradients, strip it down, change the colours, reference and incorporate, stretch, skew, scale etc.
There's no rule against scanning a life drawing or tiny sketch and turning it into a finished piece, either. I think it would be a bit of a waste not to.
