Télèmaque Obin

Born in Cap-Haitien in 1913, this son of Philomé Obin, although having been trained by his father, was slow to follow his father’s artistic footsteps. Only after working as a watchmaker for 35 years did Telemaque begin to pursue painting in 1966. Country scenes were his preferred subjects and his favorite color was green.
