Esther Haywood is an Anmatyerre woman, the grand daughter of one of Australia's most beloved artists; the late Gloria Petyarre.
When she was a young girl, her mother died in a car accident and so she and her younger brother would split their time growing up between Ali Curung with their father and Utopia with Gloria. Esther attended Alekarenge school and started painting when she was 16 years old under the guidance of Gloria's family in Utopia.
Painting was a booming industry for desert artists at this time and female artists at Utopia led the scene. Art such as Leaves by Gloria, Bush Yam by Emily Kame Kngwarreye and Grass Seed by Barbara Weir were fetching tens of thousands of dollars. A mere decade earlier, canvas art was just getting started.
