Poppy Collection – Artist uses air to create art

Ayr creates her own canvas and color pallet, with a mixture of Pigments and Acrylic. Ayr creates her latest collection using Air produced by a leaf blower.
Eighths, a collection of eight unique, yet connected pieces embodies a dimensional whole, yet brings out the individuality of the room. This recent work by Ayr is true functional art with the ability to be hung in multiple rooms or as one unique piece. As a single work of art end to end, Eighths is an extravagant eighty inches of creativity. With spacing, Eighths creates an interpolation of light, darkness and balance as the painting consumes any wall and adds instant personality with room to provoke thought.
The SquAyr collection has been crafted with creativity and designed for flexibility. As a play on words Melissa Ayr has gone back to the basics with her use of both the square shape and the mixing of primary colors.
