Brittney Williams is a Los Angeles-based podcaster, music/fine arts photographer, and journalist. She is the founder and leading creative behind the publication The Reclusive Blogger, and the subsequent podcast The Reclusive Blogger… Interviews. Her love of the arts all started after seeing a Van Gogh painting as a kid, a moment that changed her life forever sealing my dream to work in the arts somehow. Williams finds inspirations in a lot of places as she considers herself self-taught within her disciplines and an autodidact. But, her biggest inspirations remain, Van Gogh and more recently Dan Smith of Bastille, Frank Ocean, and Kurt Cobain. For style and aesthetics Zendaya and Hayley Williams. Brittney Williams main projects were not only born out of her love of music and art, but her drive for artistic expression and freedom. Some of Brittney's hobbies when she's not focused on her blog, photography, or podcast would be binge-watching her favorite shows (Euphoria, Only Murders In The Building, and Reservation Dogs), and jewelry making which she sells online, at her Etsy shop. Other hobbies include fine art photography and poetry reading and writing.
