Faire du Beau
Née en France dans une famille où l’habileté manuelle était à la fois une nécessité et une vertu, je baigne dans la créativité depuis l’enfance.
A 19 ans, après une année à l’Ecole des Beaux Arts de Nantes, je suis partie explorer le monde. J’ai beaucoup voyagé et j’ai pratiqué divers métiers, de la création de vêtements à l’enseignement de l’art en passant par la restauration. Après m’être finalement installée à Montréal, j’ai obtenu un Baccalauréat en Arts Plastiques à l'Université Concordia. J'ai finalement choisi une carrière qui combine mes besoins de création et de sens: embellir l'environnement de mes clients pour améliorer leur qualité de vie.
Peintre en décors depuis 1997, formée d'abord en autodidacte je me suis perfectionnée à travers diverses formations en Europe et en Amérique du Nord. Travaillant avec architectes, designers et particuliers, j'ai transformé des centaines d'espaces et d'objets pour embellir résidences, commerces et institutions.
Faux-finis traditionnels, dorure, peinture sur verre et travail de miroir, peinture sur tissu, sur meuble, stuc vénitien, murales, trompe-l'œils, reproductions d'œuvres d'art, restauration, mosaïque, verre églomisé, travail de résine: curieuse, j'explore continuellement des nouvelles techniques. Tout est possible, chaque projet un défi créatif unique. Au besoin je m'entoure d'une équipe chevronnée et nous nous adaptons aux impératifs de chaque chantier.
Je suis membre du Conseil des Métiers d’Art du Québec et mon travail a été publié dans Houzz, Décormag, Montreal Home et Décoration Chez Soi.

Sa soif de connaissances et son ouverture d'esprit lui permettent de faire face à de nouveaux défis. De nature généreuse, Marie-pierre n'hésite pas à partager son savoir- faire avec ses proches collaboratrices.

“I feel that Marie-Pierre is a true professional and a diligent worker. She is able to provide technical experience and artistic insight to any project and the results are just phenomenal. I loved working with her and she has my highest recommendation.” Alexandra Tsotsis
“I have had the pleasure of working with Marie-Pierre several times. She is a very talented artist who will bring the most beautiful and creative art on walls and much more. I highly recommend her services.” Janice Auger, Designer
“Having worked for and with Marie-Pierre on a variety of projects over the years, I am very familiar with her skills and capabilities. I highly recommend her talent and creativity. In addition to the beautiful wall finishes that she is capable of, her talent as a creative painter for murals is excellent.” Kylie Sandford, Artist
"I am very pleased with the work Marie Pierre did in my house. She is an amazing artist. She made all of my dreams become reality in my home. Thank you!" Heather A.
“Marie-Pierre transformed my condo to an amazing urban and cozy place. She's very creative and has extraordinary ideas. She's also very nice and gentle person. It was pleasure to interact with her during the project.” Elena Grager
“Wonderful artist. Superb work! The silver leaf cabinet she restored (which was in very bad shape ) came back better than new. Also modified a large mirror to include some silver leaf. Always punctual, courteous and very tidy. She can realize any project you can dream of, and more. Highly recommend and look forward to other projects with Marie-Pierre as she is very pleasant to work with. She also repaired several items of furniture with excellent results.” Julie Marvento
“Marie-Pierre was a pleasure to work with. She is creative, reliable and very much a perfectionist-a winning recipe for home renovations. The work she did on the panels, shelves and mirror in our living room are now the focal point of the room and have had rave reviews from all who have seen it.” Sheila Nemtin
“I always wanted a painting with my parents but not a conventional one. I met up with Marie-Pierre, I explained to her what I wanted and i sort of let her do her thing. I remember the morning I received it at home, i became so emotional, she had captured exactly what I wanted and the detail, the impressiveness of the detail is outstanding.” Fred Salvo
"Extraordinaire! Superbe! Mme Ayoul a peint une reproduction d'une plaque d'acier brut sur notre cheminée moderne. Le résultat est magnifique et au delà de nos attentes. Au départ, nous étions hésitants à utiliser un faux fini, croyant à tort qu'il était réservé au décor classique. Quand nous avons vu l'échantillon qu'elle nous a présenté, nous savions que nous étions entre bonnes mains, avions été écoutés et compris. Je vous recommande fortement de contacter Mme Ayoul pour un travail de grande qualité. Tout a été effectué dans les délais. De plus, Il est facile de la rejoindre, elle retourne rapidement les appels et est à l'écoute de nos besoins. Nous n'hésiterons pas à l'appeler si d'autres projets nous viennent en tête!" Sarah Levasseur
"Marie-Pierre has done a perfect job with her high techniques and great taste in art. I had such a great experience while working with her and I ended up having my wall painted exactly like I wanted." Holly Shi
"The cabinet and frame painting quality by Marie Pierre was fantastic.
The ingenuity and sense of pride in her work was incomparable and I would recommend Marie very highly for a beautiful finish and high quality works." R. Blum
"My experience with Marie Pierre was amazing. We first met to discuss the project, she listened carefully to my needs and what I was looking for. I wanted a Black Powder Room and the way she transformed the walls is incredible. It's rich, glamorous and sophisticated. This is what I want people to feel in a Powder Room. It's a small place and you can really express yourself and go wild. I knew it was going to be nice, but she blew me way. It's unbelievably Beautiful. Thank you Marie Pierre for sharing your passion." M. Le Bouthillier
"Oh my gosh! That's what you'll say after hiring Marie-Pierre Ayoul.
The work she did for me in DDO (Montreal) was out of this world. The day she completed her job, my clients did not stop texting me about the results. They said "Wow, Darleen, she is so talented, we would not hesitate to hire her again".
I have to say, she is an artist. I had her paint joint pine and melamine and make it look like marble. You have to see it to believe it.
What happened was that I had a design in mind to have marble on a wall and have my trims around the window frame painted a similar colour to the marble veins. In the end I did not like the results and called in Marie-Pierre. She made my trims look like they were pieces of marble, identical to the existing one installed!
I'm telling you, you have to see it to believe it! She's awesome!" Darleen Wong, Designer
