Terry McCue ~ [1945-2024] Canadian
An Ojibway artist from Ontario's Curve Lake First Nation in southeastern Ontario, McCue was a self-taught painter who learned from his cousin, Ojibway artist Arthur Shilling. McCue spent 19 years training substance abuse workers in Indigenous communities across Canada; during that time, he worked as a freelance illustrator, producing posters, book covers and illustrations. In 1976, he moved to Alberta, where he lived for the rest of his life. - Galleries West
