Carlos Jn.Baptiste was born in 1964 in Deschapelles, Artibonite Valley, Haiti. In 1978, he began an apprenticeship with Saincilus Ismael, the father of the Artibonite Style of painting. This style is distinctive for the use of distinct patterns in the foliage, as well as colorful dress set in lush landscapes. Ismael spoke of Carlos as the best of all his apprentices, numbering more than one hundred and fifty.
Other successful artists and art critics express astonishment at the quality of his work and speak of him as a "maitre inconnu" i.e. an unknown master. Boris Kravitz, founder of the Haitian Art Company, commented, "Carlos Jn.Baptiste is the most exciting artist I've encountered since being in Haiti." He has the combined technical skills, discipline, talent and creative force that make him a remarkable artist with an exceptional potential.
