A textile thread wraps around a series of women's hands.  The thread represents a life path often seen in various mythologies; Greek, Norse etc. connecting past present future.  The technical quality of the painting is sublime.

The 3nd's 'Rising' programme is a presentation of some rising stars in the art world.  It is our small way of supporting emerging artists.  For the price of an edition you can buy an original artwork.  We take absolutely no profit from the sale, all the money goes to the artist. 

We think that buying emerging art is one of the most rewarding ways to collect.  You get to own an original piece of work for your wall and the knowledge that you've supported an artist in their difficult early years.  Not only that emerging art can be one of the most financially rewarding, prices can skyrocket given time.  The difficulty for the emerging art collector is in the research, who will be the next megastar?  Here at The 3nd rising we've done the first step of the research for you.  These are some of the artists we think are well on their way to an outstanding career.
