Eugene Morrisseau

Thunder Bay, Ontario

I am the third male in my family. I was born in Red Lake, Ontario and went to school there. Making art has always surrounded my family through my father. I am now a full time painter and have exhibited my work throughout Canada.

My paintings come out of the same sources as my father's - the ancient Anishanabe myths based in nature and the common good of the people.

I live now in Thunder Bay, Ontario and am at work helping to establish the Morrisseau Family Foundation. I can be reached through our website.

I look forward to the day when my father's art will be firmly recognized as the art of the Ojibwe.
