Kirk Parrish grew up on a small island just outside of Seattle. As a youngster, he developed a fondness for scribbling caped superheroes and yearned to become a grandmaster ninja. These days, he’s (mostly) set aside his ninja ambitions to focus on his career as an illustrator and designer based in Orlando, Florida. With over 15 years of experience, Kirk’s artwork has been featured in video games, animation, publishing, and advertising. Known for his versatility, he tailors his style to fit the unique needs of each project.
