Description

Quiet Time
16” x 20” Oil on Canvas | Signed Pamela Turnbow
Multiple award winner • Featured in solo exhibition at the Robert Henri Museum

Bathed in warm sunlight, a young woman dressed in historic clothing sits peacefully on the ground, lost in the pages of a book. Quiet Time invites viewers into a private, contemplative moment—timeless in feeling and rich in atmosphere.

Pamela Turnbow painted this piece from a reference photo she captured while attending the Mississinewa 1812 reenactment, an event known for its detailed historical portrayals. Through expressive brushwork and luminous color, she brings the past gently into the present, honoring both the stillness of reading and the strength of quiet reflection.

This award-winning oil painting has been recognized for its emotional depth and painterly skill and was proudly featured in Pamela’s solo show at the Robert Henri Museum.

A serene and thoughtful piece, Quiet Time is ideal for collectors drawn to figurative work, historical themes, and the beauty of everyday moments made extraordinary.
