Birds take wing across his sculptures, cavort in the palms, hide among the vines, and even make an occasional nest in a head of hair!Born in Croix des Bouquets in 1971, he learned his craft at the instructive hand of Hubert Bernard. Five years ago, he decided to strike out on his own. He comments, “It wasn’t an easy decision to leave Hubert Bernard’s shop and create my own art. I have a wife and children to support. It wasn’t an easy street for me, in spite of my experience. But thanks so to God that I did.” Indeed, it has been a good thing. Paul loves to create his own designs. Since striking out on his own, he has participated in three art expositions in Haiti, selling all of his designs, “because they were so nice.” He is pleased to be selling his sculptures with It's Cactus in the international market. As he readily admits, “It has been my dream for a long time.”
