Using Your Old Art to Create New Art / Painting Journal Process

Creating an art journal page using your old artwork is a great way to explore your creativity and to reuse your artwork in a new way.
I took my old paintings and collage work and ripped it up. I am getting into the habit of saving the work I do (even if I don't like it) so that I can use it in something else. I like that I can make something new with it and try new things in my journal without fear of making "mistakes." Instead, I can create weird and colourful paintings without caring about the end result. This also helps me discover new techniques.
