    Loved the window display, open flag out front but dead bolted door. All lights are on, no indication of hours

    I've never bought a single piece of artwork in my life…read more Call me a boor, but I suppose I just never saw the point. But today, I am a proud owner of a small and humble piece of art. And for that, I have to thank Alexander "Sandy" Nesbitt. Nesbitt is a self-made photography entrepreneur working out of a small studio in Newport, Rhode Island. When you walk into his studio, you see the usual things you'd expect to see in a photography gallery: framed pictures hanging on the wall, canvas prints of boats in still water, collages. But as you delve deeper, it's hard to tell where the gallery ends and where the "lab" begins. He's been all over the world in his decades long photography career, but he's a Newport native and so he's transitioned into doing a lot more local work. I had the pleasure of chatting with him for a good hour and a half before I made my purchase. I really didn't think I would buy something, but at some point in the middle of our conversation, I knew I was going to walk out of there with something--I just didn't know what. In any case, he definitely made my experience worthwhile and I recommend that anyone in the Newport area pay him a visit.

    We were looking to pick up something for our new apartment and came across Alexander's Blink…read moreGallery on our walk along Thames. My fiancée found a print that she loved but unfortunately they were out of it in the size she was looking for. Gigi (sp?) from the gallery told us that the owner, Alexander "Sandy" Nesbitt, was out at the Newport Folk Festival with many other pieces and that we should check back after the Festival to see if our piece was among those he took with him. We came back the next day, and a different woman (apologies for forgetting your name) kindly looked up our piece in the inventory and told us there was one left at 89 Thames Street (Sandy's main gallery). She was able to have us purchase it at Blink and have it put aside at the other studio. When we got to the studio the piece was nicely wrapped waiting for us, and we were able to have a great chat with Sandy about his art, the festival, and much more.

    I don't wanna use the word Hidden jam because I feel like I've used it a lot especially In Rhode…read moreIsland. There's so many hidden things here and there that are in plain sight but you can't tell because there's trees and other beautiful things surrounding it. Came here with my husband for a tea event, and the grounds alone were breathtaking and relaxing. There is a trail that you can walk. There's also a gift shop and a pond and it's just also peaceful. Very serene view of mother nature I can see anybody being able to paint at this gorgeous peaceful area. You should definitely go online and see upcoming events. They have whiskey tasting gin tasting tea events if you like tea like I do, and even though I am more of a tequila person, I would definitely come for a whiskey tasting event. The pictures I took do not do it any justice as far as how beautiful the scenery is. When you get a chance, you should definitely come down here and might as well buy a family membership if you have a family so that you can come back more than once.

    We enjoyed our visit there. There wasn't a tour guide, but we walked through the museum, which was…read morereally interesting and it was cool to see the painting of George Washington and more. The grounds are lovely but small. We looked in the mills and walk around the pond. It was $15 per person and we were there about 30-35 minutes. It was the house he was born in, not where he lived and worked, so it's a bit hard to image him there. But definitely worth spending an hour or so in nice weather.
