"Germaphobe" is a humorous painting by Lucia Heffernan that depicts a pug wearing a red shirt with the words "Germ Free Zone" printed on it. The dog has a worried expression and holds a spray bottle, suggesting a fear of germs. The background is a blue canvas with cartoon-like representations of germs. The artwork is a playful commentary on modern society’s anxieties around hygiene and cleanliness.
