Biography:   Since graduating from the UNH Art Program in 2007, the artist has been painting almost non-stop.  Her first exhibit, Stages of Decomposition, was received.  While the original pieces of her first series remain “NFS” (for now), all fifty of the smaller studies from the exhibit were sold.  Her subsequent series, Duplicity,  Precious Precarious, Solitaire, and The Chairs of War were all met with praise from both the press and the public.  Toffic co-founded the aRtPM Challenge, a month long winter event open to everyone (artist and non), designed to further develop a community of creativity in the greater Seacoast NH/ME area.
