Christian was born on December 11, 1969 and raised in Red Lake, Ontario.  He is the youngest of seven children of the renowned Woodland Artist, Norval Morrisseau.  Christian follows in his father’s artistic footsteps and is an accomplished artist in his own right.  His love of this style of art was traditionally passed down to him by his father, Norval, who in turn learned from his grandfather Potan, a well known and respected traditional Shaman.  Christian learned and listened to his father’s teachings and began painting in May 2002.  Christian paints his animal images, landscape, his father and children, his tradition, his legends. Christian is developing his artistic gifts with intensity, discipline, and passion.  One of his first paintings was purchased by the Minister of the Department of Indian Affairs, Robert Nault, as a gift presentation for the historical treaty signing between the Inuit and the Government of Canada in October of 2002.  Christian’s works can be found in public and private collections around the world.
