He continues in the pictorial primitive tradition of his father, painting full-time in Cap-Haitien until his death in 1992. Many Haitian art lovers collect his art. "Influenced by the strictness of his father, Philome Obin, Obin was nevertheless, able to emancipate himself from the representation of detail, "says Gerald Alexis in his book "Peintres Haitiens."
