Blog Party: WILL PRINCE
August 30, 2012 1:53 PM
Julia Lang is the 25 year old blogger behind www.geeksndfashion.com. She currently resides in Berlin, Germany but calls Machame, in Tanzania, Africa, her home.
They say you are no one until you are drawn to someone.
I am saying, you are no one until Will Prince is drawn to you.
Will Prince is a young aspiring artist from the UK. "I'm motivated and weird, word to Cudi. Who wants to be normal?" smirked Will. I tried to get to know him a little bit better by asking him what made him become an artist. "I guess it was sort of an escape, you can express yourself through art which is why I loved it and why I still do." said Will.
Will continued, "I met Julia in London and she's really great person. She has an aura about her which is what I look for when doing portraits. I enjoy following her blog www.geeksndfashion.com. I love to see what’s going on within the fashion world and I like how she also keeps the blog personal, it's her style. I think it's great when someone is expressing themselves, thats what's great about this whole digital era."
I remember the feeling when I received Will Prince’s drawing of me. It was a mixture of happiness, excitement and honor. I have followed the path of the talented Will Prince for quite a while now. His art is unique and I could always feel the spirit behind it. I admire his work and I think he has got a great future ahead of him. He took his time to draw me. ME. It's still putting a smile on my face. He made me feel special because he only draws selected people. These selected people are people in where he finds inspiration.
He is chasing his dreams by doing what he loves the most. I will always be a huge supporter of these kind of people, since I am doing the very same. It's not an easy path but it's worth it. "My goal and dream is to make a living doing what I love, I want to create. I would love to go down the route of art and design within the music industry, film and fashion as well." He said.
Let's see where our path is leading us. I am sure we will all meet again at one point. All these artists, visionaries, designers, bloggers and other people who are here to chase their dreams and to make the world a little brighter and more beautiful.
