About

My favorite superhero is the Flash. I love his humor. 

I believe what makes a hero a hero is that they do what they do despite their fears, despite the fact they may be a little chicken. They face their fears and shortcomings and plod ahead.

A sense of humor can light the darkest path. I believe that's why it's called being light-hearted.

Whether I'm illustrating books for kids or creating super hero chickens my art strives to encourage people to be brave heroes. My sculptural art makes use of lights and darks to create beautiful pictures. Why? Because we need dark to see the light. Because heroes are not heroes unless they are afraid. Because every hero is a little chicken. 

Stephen Silver (Creator of Kim Possible) says:

Chris Perry character design work is innovative, refreshing, and reflects a deep creative aesthetic. His sense of humor and joy for what he does is contagious. He offers a unique style of colored pencil (combined with Photoshop) renderings for kid’s books. I feel the style would be a perfect fit for any publisher looking to work with a dedicated artist. 

Brian Ajhar (Illustrator of New Yorker and Children’s Books) says:

His desire and enthusiasm and fascination with storytelling and character development has a personal approach. Chris at his best can create a complex environment with multiple characters while attracting your attention to where he wants you to focus. His ability to drive his point of view is a natural fit for the publishing world as Children’s Book illustrator.
