After a few years, another opportunity was presented in South Carolina with another high-profile screen printer. As things go, some artists burn out after doing the same things for almost forty years. Denny took what was a big, big leap of faith, he handed in his resignation from a high paying position, packed up everything and moved to Cody to pursue his fine art full time, something he had been doing just nights and weekends for several years.

Denny has produced graphites and oils that have passed though the Buffalo Bill Historical Center Art Auctions. He has two pieces hanging permanently in the Booth Western Art Museum in Cartersville, Georgia. Another facet of Denny's art career has been the privilege of producing NFL player portraits from the 50s, 60, and 70s for Art Rooney, Jr., the son of late, great owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers' Art Rooney, Sr. He is currently commissioned to paint some of the newer Steeler players for the Steeler organization. What an honor for a "life-long" Steeler fan! One of the players slated to have his portrait done is Greybull's favorite son, Brett Keisel, one of the Steelers' outstanding defensive linemen. But with the move to Cody, Denny's attention has made a major turn back to his "western art." He is on a mission to put himself into the realm of the many great, great artists that live and paint in this great town of Cody, Wyoming. Time will tell.
