ARTROGER

The Gallery Sigvardson are happy to include Roger´s paintings for the first time in Denmark.

Roger Cummiskey´s paintings capture moments of quiet intensity and undiscovered beauty. His use of primary colours lends an air of nostalgia to his pictures, which distinguishes his work and creates a sense of timelessness.

Cummiskey’s compositions often capture the viewer’s attention with their simple, recognizable scenes, drawing the viewer’s attention to unexpected textures, nuances of shadow and brilliant bits of light.

Roger Cummiskey in terms of his ability is able to transform ordinary scenes of human life into moments ripe with dramatic possibility.

Roger, from Dublin in Ireland lives and works in Mijas Costa, Spain where he says he is able to find the “daily poetry” which inspires his art.

Its cool to be Celtic! Roger is part of the Irish Tribe, the Irish diaspora!

"I am delighted to be joining Bo and Lotta as part of their stable of Artists in Rodby, Denmark. I have known both Bo and Lotta for a number of years and consider him one of the good guys in the Art world. This gallery is a relatively new venture for this pair of daft Swedes and I am happy to be associated with them".

Irish Literature: What Makes Irish Writers So Good?

Image
James Joyce by Roger Cummiskey. When we think of Ireland, we think of a country that has a rich cultural heritage. A place which seems to be bursting at the seams with poets, novelists and playwrights, who all seem to have been gifted with an incredible innate sense of storytelling and drama. If you were to check the list of Nobel Prize winners since it’s inception, you’d find that Ireland ranks eighth in terms of how many it has produced over the years. Just what is it that makes the Irish so good at writing and the creative process? The first Irish foray into literature Culturally speaking, Ireland lays claim to the fact that it has one of the oldest forms of vernacular literature in the world, with only Greek or Latin able to match it. The Irish peoples were literate from the very earliest centuries, utilising a simple writing system called “Ogham” which was a way of communicating via inscriptions on little stone tablets. One of the very first proper written Irish wor
