His good friend growing up was Frantz Zephirin who learned to paint sitting as a child at the feet of his uncle, Antoine Obin. Gary and Zephirin went to Port au-Prince together in the mid to late 1980's.

Gary Vincent is a supurb technician and his best paintings
contain a surreal spiritual element.

His work has been exhibited around the world.
He retired from painting for some years and became
a police officer in Haiti, but is said to be back painting again.
