Merienda 

"Merienda" by Melissa Hefferlin is a realistic depiction of a woman, lying on her back on a rug and reading a book. The painting captures a sense of tranquility and domesticity, with its depiction of everyday objects, such as the blue chair, rug, and book. The relaxed pose of the woman and the soft light in the room contribute to the overall feeling of peace. The painting is a study in color and light, with the artist using muted tones to create a sense of depth and texture. This work exemplifies Hefferlin's use of natural light and the beauty of everyday moments.
