TROY DENNING has 17 years of tattooing experience, traveling extensively both in Europe and Japan, and learning from the best in the industry. Troy’s choice to permanently make his home in New York City is testament to his love of knowledge, ambition, and excitement, all of which are reflected in his art - tattooing. The learning process, which is vital to Troy’s livelihood, is integral to the unique essence of tattooing itself. This learning process is ongoing and is what motivates him to elevate and preserve the art of tattooing.

Troy’s passion to give something back to the art form that has fueled his entire adult life is enhanced further by the human contact aspect of tattooing. For Troy, it is fulfilling to know that a profession that gives him so much pleasure, in turn gives power to another. Troy states that, “it is rewarding to know that I have done - hopefully - to the best of my ability something that will forever be with someone and mean something to them. It is with each day that I not only learn to love my profession a bit more, but I increasingly develop a greater appreciation for the craft. I want to give this and relay this to my client.”

It is only with discipline, sacrifice, and respect that Troy has been able to reach the point he is currently at and is thus able to move forward in the world of tattooing. In Troy’s own words, “it is my duty and obligation to bring this to all my clients.”
