Being still in the "learning stages" myself, I begin every drawing and every painting knowing that I'll throw it away soon after finishing it. I keep the work long enough to learn what I can from it (sometimes a day, sometimes a year), then it becomes landfill.
For me it's more about storage space than my eventual reputation, and there's something a little relieving about throwing away something I've spent quite a bit of time on and am still not happy with.
