For some of us, the world seems as though it has flipped on its head. For others, the slower pace and time with family is a welcome change. Wherever you land on that spectrum, odds are you’re looking for some form of entertainment…or just a way to keep the kids busy.<\/p>\n
You have been on my mind a lot.<\/p>\n
How do I serve you when I have a business that can’t be open? While I consider portraits essential, the government does not.<\/p>\n
Cue the brainstorming.<\/p>\n
When I was young, I LOVED walking into businesses that were holding coloring contests! Seeing the art already submitted on the walls and feeling the hope that my artistic ability might be good enough to win, lit a fire that stills burns inside.<\/p>\n
Art is a beautiful thing. We can all start with the same canvas (in this case, an image) and produce vastly different results! We all see something differently, a unique beauty that otherwise might be missed were we not to share it.<\/p>\n
This is your opportunity to share what you see, to see what your kids see, to join together with friends and strangers and create a collection of beauty.<\/p>\n
Every submitted image will be proudly displayed on this page as they are received. It’s free to join and every person will receive a gift as a “thank you” for participating.<\/p>\n
All ages are encouraged!<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_start=”rgba(255,255,255,0)” background_color_gradient_end=”#e6e4e1″ background_color_gradient_end_position=”30%” custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.williamsphotographystudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/WPSwaterliliesSQ.jpg” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.4.2″ custom_margin=”||-10%|-10%” custom_padding=”20%|10%|||false” filter_opacity=”60%” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_intensity_slide=”4%” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_blur=”80px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(143,128,114,0.27)”] \r[\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”What we do” _builder_version=”3.22″ use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_start=”rgba(242,227,222,0.24)” background_color_gradient_end=”#ffffff” background_color_gradient_start_position=”75%” background_color_gradient_end_position=”74%” custom_padding=”100px|0px|100px|0px|true|false” box_shadow_style=”preset7″ box_shadow_horizontal=”0px” box_shadow_vertical=”210px” box_shadow_color=”#ffffff” locked=”off”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ admin_label=”what we do Row” _builder_version=”3.25″][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.williamsphotographystudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/WPSwaterlilies.jpg” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.4.2″ animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_intensity_slide=”4%” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ box_shadow_color=”rgba(143,128,114,0.27)”] \r[\/et_pb_image][et_pb_button _builder_version=”3.16″ button_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off”] \r[\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”140px|||6%” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”Cormorant Garamond||||||||” text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”1.8em” link_font=”||||||||” ul_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_3_font=”||||||||” header_3_font_size=”45px” header_3_line_height=”1.5em” header_4_font=”||||||||” header_5_font=”Poppins|700||on|||||” header_5_text_color=”#ecd5c5″ header_5_letter_spacing=”15px” header_5_line_height=”1.8em” max_width_tablet=”100%” max_width_phone=”100%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”right” custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”||6px|||”]
