About Me
see ArtofPerego.com for the entite portfolio-PEREGO “arrived on the planet†on the 24th day of October in 1967.
A triple Scorpio, the stars lending their unanimous opinion to a being determined
and forceful, emotional and intuitive, powerful and passionate, exciting and magnetic.
Also, gifted with a then unknown artistic family legacy (he would discover at age 28),
he immediately showed talent in art, theater and music and seemed destined for
creativity at an early age.
After a brief stint in the Joe Kubert School, Perego (now 19) dropped out and enrolled in the
school of life, embarking on a career as a freelance commercial artist with a repertoire
of screen printing, sign writing, airbrush, portraiture and large scale murals.
Arriving in Philadelphia in 1990, Perego saturated the hip and funky South Street area
with his unique blend of urban expression style and inspirational energy.
Night clubs, coffeehouses, and restaurants all had murals and storefronts by Perego.
Among them was Makos retired-surfers Bar & Grill, (now a legendary South Street cornerstone),
Imagine, Govindas, Tiajuana Yacht club, the Borgia café, Haagendaaz on South, John’s Café,
to name a few. After bouncing up & down the east coast and settling into the Daytona Beach area in
1992, Perego soon began applying his talents, and expanding into interior design in the
beachside locale.
As a designer, artist and activist throughout central Florida, Perego was sought as
Art Director for Eros Corp. a local entertainment developer Scenic City (Deland),
a group he led in painting of the massive AT&T world globe (Times Square).
Other projects included the 25th Anniversary signage for Walt Disney World
(Orlando) Barney's Coffee (Celebration), and the 13,000 sq ft trompe l'oeil
outdoor mural adorning ABC Carpet and Home (Boca Raton).Theatrical Designer
for A.P.A. Studios, a New York-based animation studio.The signature piece of the Volusia County Courthouse and Pioneer Park,
the nationally-acclaimed, award-winning historic mural both in the city of Deland, Fl.,
and the "largest" Harley Motorcycle dealer in the world- Bruce Rossmeyer's
Harley Davidson of Daytona, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano and Sunrise also carry
Perego's signature. The T.D. Waterhouse (Orlando) and the Office Depot Center
(Sunrise, Fl.) also now exhibit his work.
As Art Director for Walt Disney World Entertainment. Perego's vision helped launch
the 1998 Disney Cruise Line Inaugural Event (Cape Canaveral), the Animal Kingdom
Press Event and the Premier Party for Cirque du Soliel (Downtown Disney, Orlando).
In television, his work can be seen on Univision, BET, as well as on the local PBS.Perego’s Fine Art is a private experience. Inspired by classical, modern, pop and abstract
art and equipped with an extraordinary ability to use diverse techniques and styles as if they
were also colors on his palette, you never know what to expect. Perego's subjects range
from mythical and prophetic, to often surrealist in nature and his images demand close
inspection to reveal the esoteric messages within.
Perego now works coast -to-coast, for the leading Art and Entertainment industries
and is loving every minute of it.
His "home base" is in Ormond Beach, Florida with his three wonderful and bright children, Marcella, Thoren, and Phoenix.
