Found in the small town of Salter Path in the heart of the Crystal Coast, this acclaimed artist has a working studio as well as a small gallery of her works, which are readily available for art lovers to admire, and purchase, on an inspired trip off the beach.
Leni Newell has been a professional artist since 1986, and her unique works are a combination of mixed media and collage. A recipient of a Regional Artist Project Grant from The United Arts Council of Raleigh & Wake County, her innovative and award-winning works have been exhibited in galleries and museums all across the country.
