Hi fellow Rhode Islander! I haven't seen this species around here before, cool (but I know they are quite common)! Its definately a female A. virginiensis.

Not an ID
But I would guess Northern Pink-striped Oakworm Moth (Anisota virginiensis virginiensis). I would check the rest of Genus Anisota to be sure.
