"Sofie" is a realistic oil painting by Lucia Heffernan, a contemporary artist born in 1966. The painting depicts a small, brown dog with a fluffy coat sitting on a leopard-print rug in front of a deep blue background. The artist's masterful use of light and shadow brings the subject to life, capturing the animal's soft fur and expressive eyes in exquisite detail. This piece is a testament to Heffernan's skill in portraiture and animal art.
