Jean, Edouard
1953-
Edouard Jean was born in 1953 in Cap Haitian. His stepmother taught him to play the organ at the age of ten. Later he became the organist at the Cathedral. It was in 1972 that he started to paint under the direction of Rodrigue Richard; but he immediately found his own path by pursuing his research into the palette of pastel colors.
