This artist started painting in 1972 after joining the Centre d’Art. He specialized in painting until 1990 when he decided to venture into the world of sculptures. He adored his teachers and accorded them a lot of respect for teaching him the art. Lionel Saint Eloi has since then created heavily coveted sculptures which have been exhibited in many places. He is an all time sculptor.
He painted a lot of voodoo ceremonies. His sculptures are mainly made of aluminum, though he tries as much as he can to use the locally available materials. He also recycles steel. The finishing of these sculptures is very well done, giving them a very tempting look. Lionel Saint Eloi has worked on sculptures of an angel, crucifix, birds and gods.
