At the age of three, he did not complete his secondary education and later entered J.B. Damier Technical High School in 1942, where he learned cabinetmaking. In 1947, while working at the Art Center as a cabinetmaker, he met American artist Alex Jones, who introduced him to painting.In 1950, Depas was involved in the founding of the Foyer des Arts Plastiques. In 1954, he moved to the United States, where he studied at the Cranbrook Academy of Art and later at Wayne University. Upon returning to Haiti in 1956, he became a member of Galerie Brochette.In 1960, Depas moved to New York and attended the Lyly Blumeneau Workshop, where he studied and later taught weaving from 1962 to 1963. He then lived in Germany from 1963 to 1968, taking the opportunity to travel throughout Europe and visit various art centers. Since 1968, he has resided in New York, where he has taught many students. (Source: Haiti and Ses Peintres de 1804 to 1980 by Michel Philippe Lerebours)
