Vicenti has painted with all types of media and portrayed a large variety of subjects, but his prime theme is centered among his Jicarilla Apache culture.  Vicenti, born at Dulce, New Mexico, attended Albuquerque High School, Haskell Institute, Brigham Young University and several other Utah colleges as well as the National University of Mexico in Mexico City.  He studied art in all of these schools so he was very well trained as an artist. It is no surprise, then, that he was an art instructor at one time.  He also garnered many awards during his career.
