Art Talk | "To make my past beautiful." - Swedish Artist, Alice Herbst

I met this beautiful artist, Alice Herbst, in Stockholm, Sweden this winter.
She was one of the girls who tried to find herself as a teenager. I am sure we all do, did, and done.
She plays and creates many different personas for her painting and recreates the characters by painting on canvas.

I also always find it hard to define myself as one person or personality; I embraced her perspective and point of view this time and was greatly inspired by her story.
If there is someone to try to find your soul and combine it with one, you might get some idea through her story.
I hope this interview will help you to find the answer for yourself.

Enjoy, and Happy holidays to you and your families. May the season be one of joy, celebration, and warmth and the year to come filled with health and new blessings.
