We are a husband and wife team, married for 15 years. Passerine Press brings together the skills we’ve developed individually: Writing, Printing, and Graphic Design.
We live together in a little brown ranch house hugged by white pine, oak, maple, beech, juniper and birch. Perches for many passerine and their cousins from other bird orders. If the trees hug the house, the birds hug even tighter. Sparrows pop up in a bunch from the hedges under our windows, juncos rustle in the snow on our door sill, and wrens nest in the old Christmas wreath on our front door. Once they even flew in when our pizza was delivered. They stayed inside, flying from lampshades to kitchen cabinets to radiators, with seemingly no intention of flying out again. They seemed happy. They didn’t know they were in a house. We were just part of their habitat.
We share our world openly with the birds. We invite you to join us.

Special Thanks to Mary Collett, a Bristol-based artist and printmaker, who graciously allowed us to use her linoprint of a squawking wren as part of the Passerine Press Banner and logo. You can find more of Mary’s work at http://www.linoprints.co.uk.
