Tony Perez

Studio Member since 2013

Antonio “Tony” Perez Jr. was born in 1991 in Berwyn, IL. Tony’s preferred art-making materials are markers, oil pastels, and watercolors. “Everybody works together. I draw my house, clouds, and stained glass windows.” With imagery including flowers, shapes, houses, and people, Tony’s art is a vibrant representation of his experience of the world.  “Markers, oil pastels, colored pencils are very good. Sun, flowers, grass, circles, moon, and the triangles, the stars. Red, and orange! Doing good! Making art makes me feel happy!” Tony also works at UCP Seguin and volunteers at the Brookfield Zoo.  

Tony’s work has been featured in exhibitions at Arts of Life’s Circle Contemporary gallery and at Chicago’s Merchandise Mart.
