Williams’ work is characterized by her creative depiction of birds, animals and people. She transforms her characters into unique animated figures representative of her attitude toward life. Williams’ art is about finding an authentic way of depicting an idea, an idea that is carried out without knowledge of what the result might be. She tries to get beneath the surface of her figures in order to transform them into her own unique version, created with a language of bright colors and bold shapes.

The increased recognition of Williams’ work in recent years has taken her by surprise. She confesses to feeling a bit "uncomfortable" with all the attention, and prefers selling fruits and vegetables at her stand in the historic town of Bealsville to being in front of a camera. Although Williams never expected such an overwhelming response to her work, she always kept a positive attitude and strongly believed that, one day, she would somehow succeed in life. It is her profound belief in God that supported her during hard times and which, she says, will keep her going throughout her entire life.
