She completed her very first painting at the age of 11 in 1973, immediately acquired by the famous Galerie Monnin in Port-au-Prince, which encouraged her to continue creating while joining the prestigious Centre d'Art d'Haïti as early as 1974. Although she initially prioritized her schooling, she fully and seriously dedicates herself to her artistic career in the early 1980s. Her international recognition grew rapidly through exhibitions organized in France, Italy, and the United States as early as 1980. In 1983, she won second prize in a poster contest sponsored by Air France, consolidating her reputation on the international stage. Regarded as one of Haiti’s most sophisticated painters, her style is fully aligned with contemporary art and the folklore of her homeland. Her preferred works are oil and acrylic paintings on canvas depicting rich tropical landscapes in vibrant color.
