Pat Custer Denison and Chip Denison collaborate on making many varieties of art pieces, but are most noted for their ceramic tile paintings. Pat is the primary artist and designer with husband, Chip as the major facilitator. Their paintings are framed in their signature handmade frames. These frames are often free formed shaped and have elaborate carving and embellishments.

In addition to their paintings, each year Pat and Chip do a series of individual 6” x 8” ceramic tiles that are eagerly anticipated and collected. These can be seen and purchased on their web site.  

Pat and Chip (both born in 1948) were high school sweethearts, married in 1970, and continue to live happily ever after. They feel privileged to get to work together and play together in their home/studio in Benzie County , MI .
