Sheila Newquist Fine Art

Sheila Newquist Fine Art Sheila Newquist is an artist in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. Studying watercolor with Susan, she was able to dust off the brushes again.

Sheila grew up enjoying drawing and won a “most artistic” award in her graduating high school class. She went on to pursue an education in nursing, became absorbed raising a family, and continues to maintain a full time career in the healthcare industry. After a nearly 13 year hiatus from doing any artwork at all, Sheila was fortunate enough to be introduced to Susan Shaw in 2012. For this reason, her focus has been primarily watercolor.
