She shares practical, creative, and even fun ideas for turning unsold work into fresh opportunities. From reimagining how you present the pieces, to building new sales channels, to using surplus art for marketing and community-building, you’ll walk away with actionable steps that turn an inventory “problem” into your next big advantage.
