Pierre had three passions: his art, the ocean and his close family and friends.

His love of art took him to Europe in the 60’s where he drew inspiration from the masters and began his life-long creative journey.

Sailing gave him peace and connected him with the natural landscapes that he loved to portray in his paintings.

In his social life, family and friends were the source of his greatest joy. From discussing world affairs to watching his grandchildren grow, he drew his happiness from the special connections with the people around him.
