An excerpt from an article about her art, written by the curator of the exhibition Art Show Paris:
Introduction to Artist Marit Refsnes: The Art of Portraiture Between Realism and Emotion
Marit Refsnes, a Norwegian artist based in France, excels in portraiture, skillfully capturing the soul and emotions of her subjects. Trained in classical drawing in a Parisian studio, she also explores oil painting—a medium where she plays with light, texture, and contrast. Her oil paintings are distinguished by: Soft, nuanced tones that reveal the intensity of gazes and the depth of emotions.
Masterful textures where every brushstroke brings faces to life.
Expressive realism that goes beyond mere reproduction to infuse a genuine presence.
Through her vibrant and intimate portraits, Marit Refsnes invites us to dive into the intensity of gazes and the stories they carry. An art of detail and emotion to discover.

Marit Refsnes was selected to participate in the Woman in Art Biennale 2025 in London where she received the Woman in Art Excellence Award. Recognizing outstanding achievement and impact in the visual arts.
