He settled in Port-au-Prince at the end of the 1940s and he was introduced to the Centre d'Art in 1947 by his friend, the painter Dieudonné Cédor. From 1950 to 1956, he frequented the Foyer des Arts Plastiques, founded by a group of intellectuals and modern artists, including Cédor.
Casimir was one of the instigators of a Haitian archetype, the market painting, which he painted using various tones of red, orange and yellow.
