Cree artist George Littlechild’s paintings are in museum and private collections around the world. He spent most of his childhood in the child welfare system in Alberta, as he and his siblings were part of the 60s scoop that saw thousands of Indigenous children apprehended from their parents and never returned. Today he creates brilliant works of art that reflect his lifelong commitment to reconnecting with his family and his Indigenous ancestry.
