Pierre-Noel and Georges Ramponeau and his portraiture under R. Brackman and B. Klonis in N.Y.C. He returned to Haiti to help found the Brochette Art Gallery and later his own L'Atelier Gallery. He painted scenes at the Haiti airport, El Rancho, and Choucoune Hotels. He has exhibited in the U.S., Europe, and the Surinam. His art hangs in many private collections.
