Julie Heffernan

Julie Heffernan employs the refined technique, rich palette, and intricate detail of historical European painting to tell contemporary stories about self, society, and the environment. In her large-scale compositions, Heffernan often weaves fantastical landscapes and multiple figures to create a canvas that goes beyond conventional portraiture—her paintings are self-portraits, revealing the “accumulated features of an interior self…conceived without the distortion of a mirror.”
