Ball Hog 

"Ball Hog" is a playful and humorous painting by Lucia Heffernan, featuring two golden retrievers adorned with white caps. The dogs, rendered in meticulous detail, are depicted with mouths full of tennis balls, creating a sense of both amusement and canine determination. The background, a green tennis court with a red stripe, adds to the lighthearted and sporting theme. Heffernan's skillful use of light and shadow gives the dogs a sense of life and personality. This painting is a delightful reminder of the playful nature of animals and the joy of simple games.
