Educated at Warwick School, Hayward-Young's work, particularly his postcard designs (of which there are over 800), became renowned worldwide. He wrote a series of articles on sketching for 'The Girls Own Paper and Woman's Magazine' which were later published as a book under the title 'Short Cuts to Sketching'.

Hayward-Young signed many of his pieces under the pseudonym 'Jotter'.[1]

In 1912, Hayward-Young designed posters for the London Underground,[1] including one promoting visits to Hampton Court.

Musician Justin Hayward-Young is the great grandson of the artist.
