I was born on November 13, 1954 in Raša. I'm a member of the Association of Fine and Literary Creators of Pula, called "Uliks" and the conceptual creator of many innovations and projects in Pula, Istria, Croatia, as well in the world.
During the years of my art activity, I have painted over 300 paintings. My motives are landscapes, Istrian motives (called boškarin
, kažun
, maslina
, etc.), portraits and also sacral motives. I paint in oil technique on canvas, combined technique, and also in sculpting I have made boškarin, that had a great potential for other work.
I had 12 solo exhibitions that were commented by renowned academic painter Vera Kos Paliska, Marina Ilić and Sandra Zloić, art historian.
My work was exhibited in Pula at the Stari Grad Gallery, in Rovinj, during International Women's Day, in Zagreb at the College in Vukovarska Street, at the Mimara Museum, at the Vatican Embassy and on the ship (Pula-Venice route) - on international exhibition.
In 2008, I was welcomed by the Vatican Ambassador in Zagreb, Mr. Roberto Maria Cassaria, when I was awarded the certificate from the Rome / Vatican for the donated painting "The Way of the Cross" to Pope Benedict XVI.
A person who was role model for my work was my late father Viktor Tenčić who was a restorer, carver, modeler and innovator.
With great pleasure I've participated in a humanitarian exhibition to help earthquake victims in Haiti, through the Croatian Red Cross on the Island of Krk and in Zagreb, when I donated 14 of my paintings to help earthquake victims, which is the largest donation in Croatia.
In October 2009, I was at a reception at the President's Office in Pantovčak, where I donated the painting "Portrait of the President" to former president Stjepan Mesić. Also, during the presidency of former president Ivo Josipović I donated two paintings "Portrait of the President" - oil on canvas and "Regatta in Omišalj" - oil painting on canvas and crystals.
I am proud to say that with my work and painting I've participated in other humanitarian projects, donating, selling my paintings, whose money helped numerous sports events for young people and people in poor financial situation.
In addition to painting, I also write poetry and have written over 140 songs, which are an integral part of my work.
