Her latest works, including small ink studies, charcoal and graphite drawings, and large oil paintings, convey a palpable sense of strength and athleticism, while also evoking a transcendent quality in the depiction of the human form in various states of suspension, from leaping and soaring, to flying and falling. Above all, a feeling of freedom is carried throughout. The artist studied painting in Aberdeen in the northeast of Scotland at the Gray's School of Art, where she received an Honors B.A. in Fine Art. She was awarded the Royal Scottish Academy John Kinross Scholarship to study abroad in Florence. In 2001, McArthur completed her M.A. in European Fine Art from the Winchester School of Art in Barcelona. McArthur has lived and worked in Australia, Spain, China, Berlin and New York and is currently based in Brighton, UK. This multinational perspective is reflected in her work by her striking ability to capture the universality of human emotion.

How did numerology influence different aspects of human creation? How could some numbers assume such an extraordinary meaning? Why some numbers appear so often throughout the fabric of reality? Has reality really a preference for a ternary pattern? Present excursion through the ‘life’ and ‘deeds’ of this pattern and of its parent number in different fields of human culture try to offer an answer to some of these questions giving at the same time a glance of the strange preference of the human mind for a patterned reality based on number three, which, like the 'unary' and 'dualistic' patterned reality, but in a more emphatic way, ended up assuming an archetypical character in the intellectual sphere of humanity. Introduction Three is not only the sole number that is the sum of all the natural numbers less than itself, but it lies between arguably the two most important irrational and transcendental numbers of all mathematics, i.e., e < 3 < π.
