Esther Quinlin

Esther was born on the Macleay River, NSW and raised on a Government Reserve. She discovered her artistic talents in 1994 when she picked up a paint brush for the first time.

Esther does a variety of Aboriginal Art work. Each painting tells a story. She has won a number of major art awards.

She has lived and worked in different communities throughout Australia. Whilst living with desert people in Western Australia, she was given her skin name ‘Goongunu’. This has the same meaning as her own Thungutti tribal name ‘Murrunghan’, given to her y her mother. It means ‘good’ or ‘lovely’.

Esther lives with her family at Bellbrook some 53 kms west of Kempsey. She teaches at Bellbrook School Thungutti language in story and song so that it is never forgotten.
