Born in Carrefour near Port-au-Prince on July 1 1919, he was a wood carver (carving small decorative animals) and engraver before turning to painting by entering the Centre d’Art in 1948.  In 1951 he completed a mural (“La Visitation”) at the Cathedrale Ste.Trinite de Port-au-Prince.  At the beginning of the 1970’s he left Haiti to join his family abroad. He did not return until 20 years later.  His works often feature the old style “Gingerbread” houses one can still see in the country, as well as jungles and imaginary trees full of fruits and flowers. Pierre has exhibited in the United States and Europe.
