Answer 1

What is the contents of your package.json?
Do you having gatsby-plugin-sharp installed?
Maybe try npm install --save gatsby-plugin-sharp

Answer 2

In Windows, you may need to make add a few extra packages to make the project run. First of all, I will try to add manually the gatsby-plugin-sharp by:
npm install --save gatsby-plugin-sharp
If the error persists, you may need to add windows-build-tools as you can see in the Gatsby on Windows documentation:
npm install --global windows-build-tools --vs2015
The command above, upon installing this package, it downloads and installs Visual C++ Build Tools 2015, provided free of charge by Microsoft. These tools are required to compile popular native modules. It will also install Python 2.7, configuring your machine and npm appropriately.
If your windows-build-tools installation stalls after Visual Studio Build Tools finishes, this remedy might help.
