]]>Heffernan’s art is an exploration of her lifelong fascination with animals, and it allowed her to imagine animals in human situations and find some humor in them by putting mice, chicks, dogs, and many other animals front and center.
“Through my paintings, I seek to give animals a voice and a personality, while making light of our uniquely human existence… This collision between animal and human sensibilities creates a whimsical, theatrical, and often humorous world that viewers can relate to on an emotional level,” she told Bored Panda.
Heffernan’s art is often inspired by real-life scenes that would look preposterous in the animal kingdom. After imagining herself in these same situations, she roughly sketches the idea—and that’s when the real work starts.
Once she comes up with a clear story, she puts it together in Photoshop by using different animals, objects, and backgrounds, taking them in and out as she goes along. From dinosaurs taking selfies to chicks doing yoga, the sky is the limit for Heffernan, and each of her paintings is more hilarious than the last.

]]>With a special focus on the animal kingdom, Mills’ illustrations feature anything from turtles to lemurs (Mills adores especially wombats, capybaras, and giant anteaters). Her work—bright, bold, and full of character—is made to appeal to children, introducing them to the natural world. Mills herself grew up in a small farming town in Western Australia, and was fascinated with animals early on.
“My work is a collection of tongue-in-cheek storytelling pieces, that generally feature a caricature of an animal,” she told Pretty Picture Club. “I’m now doing more creative illustration work for clients such as primary schools and local community events, and hope to expand more into children’s illustration and mural work.”
Selected clients also include Procreate, Australia Post, Crocodile Creek, and Perth Zoo. Her illustrations also feature in the Aussie Alphabet book, a book with “26 pretty silly pages of Australian animals doing people things”, Mills joked in a recent Instagram post.
Her silly, delightful animals will delight your inner child!
