Thegenus has mastered all the disciplines of Haitian art, from native to modern. He has developed a unique and personal style of working with acrylics. His one-of-a-kind textural compositions create a serene excitement.

In 1989 he turned again to music forming a group, Loray Mistik, a vodou pop band.

In 1999 Jude founded in Miami Jakmel Art Gallery, Cultural Center and Caribbean Backyard, a center for cultural diversity, awareness, positivity and creation.

In 2004 Jude established a non-profit organization, Papaloko4Kids, with the mission of empowering the youth from all communities through the arts.

Haitian culture sustains myriad art forms, such as painting, that express a Caribbean synthesis of African and European elements.

The movement was launched in the 1940s, when American artist DeWitt Peters arrived in Haiti to teach English.
