Blink Gallery
Blink Gallery is the Newport art gallery for works by Newport photographer Alexander Nesbitt - there's a wide selection of his images in a variety of styles. Nesbitt is a photographer and maker with diverse skills and welcomes the challenge to make custom artwork. Contact the us at the gallery about commissioning custom work for your home or office.

We have a curated selection of Newport gifts from talented artists. We also have clever Rhode Island gifts at our Newport art gallery like the Newport doormat, Newport coasters and Map blanket as well as illustrations of Beth Braganca Bell, David Allyn's ceramic "Thirsty" cups, and original carbon fiber jewelry by Diana Hall.
Services
Nesbitt's favorite process is a direct print to metal using a special hand brushed print coating. He offers this unique technique for making one of a kind images printed directly on an aluminum sheet. Each piece is hand sanded and sealed. Then the coating is brushed on leaving the dramatic brushed edge.
All items available at blinkgalleryusa.com can be shipped to all destinations within the continental United States. International shipping is available, but not from the website, you must contact our customer service team (contact@blinkgalleryusa.com) to complete your transaction with an accurate shipping price.
Dye sublimation prints are rapidly becoming the trend in photography printing. Images are first printed with a special ink/dye printer on transfer paper. These images are then placed in a very hot heat press with a treated piece of aluminum. The ink vaporizes and transfers to the aluminum where it returns to its original state.
When it comes to finding a piece of art you love, you have two options. You can visit countless galleries hoping to find the perfect piece in just the right size, or you can design it yourself and save hours of anxiety and aimless wandering. We are here to help you design an artwork you know you will love.
Fully vaccinated persons don't need to wear face masks. We ask that unvaccinated adults and those at risk continue to wear a mask in the gallery.* Always open by appointment outside these hours!

I received EXCELLENT customer service from Allee at Blink Gallery!
I called her from NJ to plan a delivery of a photo of beautiful Newport for my daughter.
Allee emailed me many choices and once I made a selection, she delivered it to my daughter's workplace.
She took the time to include a personalized note, and my picture choice was delivered in a festive gift bag!
Thank you Allee for being AMAZING:)

We were looking to pick up something for our new apartment and came across Blink 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

So I walked into the Blink gallery after receiving a few pieces of art as a graduation gift from college. All of the pieces were of Newport except a few, I decided the best thing I could do would be to try and exchange the beautiful beach pictures of the Dominican Republic with alternate BEAUTIFUL pictures of Newport, where I had spent the 4 best years of my life while in school. When I approached Alex (business owner and artist) I didn't know if he would be accepting of an exchange or not. As time went on we began talking and as amazing as the pictures were he made them even more amazing
