Sheila Waters
13 March 1929 - 18 March 2022
I am very sad to share that five days a family gathering for her 93rd birthday, Sheila passed away. . . We were blessed to have know her, spent time with her preparing for her exhibits, and have her amazing artwork in The Auburn Gallery.
“Sheila was very gratified that her book “Foundations of Calligraphy” became an essential staple for every serious calligrapher’s library. Sheila made a huge impact, thrived on personal contact, loved teaching and sharing her great knowledge and skills, in person and online. She described herself first as a “designer calligrapher” for real world applications, not an artist per se, although she was very skilled at drawing and painting. She was tireless and driven, putting so much into her beautiful work and her writings.”
Thank you for sharing your talent with us Sheila. The world was made more beautiful because of it.
Our sympathies and prayers for comfort to her family.
