About

Hi! My name is Caprice Winters and I am a Trinidadian visual artist based in Orlando, Florida. I love creating character and object designs, and illustrations in the fantasy and science-fiction genres. I have a BFA in Fine Arts, majored in Painting, and I strive to juxtapose my Traditional work with my digital to reach a happy middle.
I would love to work with you!
