「我對動物的一生著迷及探索之情，都深深融入在創作之中。」
“My body of work is an expression and exploration of my lifelong fascination with animals.”
—— Lucia Heffernan
Lucia Heffernan 1966年出生於台灣，現居並工作於美國猶他州，1989年取得濱漢頓大學的藝術學士學位。以幽默奇想的人性化動物肖像擄獲全球藝術愛好者的喜愛，近五年廣受媒體邀訪，如《American Art Collector》、《富比士Forbes》、《Elle》雜誌等，作品曾展出於美國、歐洲、香港各地之藝術博覽會及畫廊，2024年攜手大雋藝術首度在台發表創作。
Lucia Heffernan將腦裡的狂想曲付諸畫筆，不僅賦予牠們擬人化的萌態，逗趣生動的肢體表情背後，更蘊含其中的天真和原始本能，觀者在會心一笑之餘也將感受情感共鳴。

Heffernan skillfully translates the fantasies of her imagination onto the canvas, personifying animals into "humans", with adorable expressions.

Beneath the painting’s adorable and playful setting lies the animals’ innocence and primal instincts, which can resonate with humans on an emotional level.
