BONUS EPISODE - Dave Perillo is a freelance illustrator and designer based in the Philadelphia area. His signature retro art style is rooted in his love of mid-century modern aesthetics and classic Americana design.

Dave is a freelance Illustrator and designer based out of the Philly burbs. In 1st grade, I revealed in my autobiography Me Book that I wanted to be the cartoon character Ziggy. I also wanted to be an artist. With the help of an Ed Emberly drawing book, hours of cartoons and a “healthy” diet of sugary cereals, I doodled my way through school on to college to study graphic design. Taking classes like typography and color theory helped make me a better illustrator. My retro art style developed from my love of the mid-century modern aesthetic. I'm inspired by Walt Disney, Mary Blair, Charles Schultz, Jim Flora, Ray Harryhausen, Roy Lichtenstein, Jim Henson, Hanna Barbera, 1950’s Sci-Fi Movies, The Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock and character advertising icons. As a kid I always drew what I liked. I still get to do that today. I feel very fortunate to have a career I love. And...if things don't work out in the art world - I could still be Ziggy!
