Francine Tint is a New York-based painter who has been a working artist since the early Seventies. Tint’s artistic career began as a successful costume designer and fashion stylist––working for David Bowie, Ridley Scott, and Entertainment and Sports Programming Network (ESPN), among others. Working as a stylist by day, and a painter by night, Tint developed her own method of large-scale, color-based painting. Tint’s work continues to be shown widely, both nationally and internationally and is held in the permanent collection of over 28 museums, including The Neuberger Museum of Art, The Heckscher Museum of Art, The Portland Museum of Art (among the Clement Greenberg Collection), and The Krannert Art Museum. Her work has been reviewed in publications including the Brooklyn Rail. Tint also conducts abstract painting workshops at The Art Students League of New York.
