Based in New York City, Francine Tint has an extensive career as an abstract painter, having participated in over 30 solo shows and being a regular feature in art fairs throughout the country. Her work os present in 25 museum collections (including the Clement Greenberg collection at the Portland Art Museum, the Krannert Art Museum in Chicago or the Tampa Museum Of Art), as well as many public and corporate collections, such as Citibank and Pepsi Co. She has also been a proud recipient of the Pollock Krasner award as well as the Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation Grant.
My paintings are emotionally visceral, concentrating on color and motion. Through agitated, flustered, vehement, and even aggressive brush work, with short, sharp, staccato bursts of color, my art expresses a unique sense of life and energy by utilizing color, light and surface.
My small works also bring in a sculptural element, by having the paint come over the edges and reshaping the canvas through the use of impasto.
