Buena suerte y salud a todos para el 2009.
In the end we only regret the chances we didn't take, the relationships we were too scared to have and the decisions we waited too long to make.
There comes a time in your life when you realise who matters, who doesn't, who never did and who always will. So don't worry about the people from your past. There's a reason they didn't make it to your future. So only send this to the people in your life who matter. I just did! Happy New Year. Roger.

| Roger Cummiskey Beckitts, Marbella presents Summer Sunshine, an exhibition of recent paintings by Roger Cummiskey on view until 30 Sept., 2009. Cummiskey’s new work uses abstract interpretation to highlight Summer time. Roger Cummiskey’s use of drawing and painting on paper in watercolour is considered by many to be masterful. He “employs delicate lines that seem to touch the surface – just long enough to form the silhouette, record a bodily gesture, or suggest an emotional expression.” Neutral pigments become the backgrounds for such depictions, allowing the characters and the relationship that is established between them to suggest that the apparent banality of the situation is actually a platform to reflect on the realities of sameness and difference, through non-narrative moments void of spatial context. Earth elements reappear throughout his oeuvre in the form of objects, backgrounds, clothing or lack of it, insinuating the basic instincts of the Authors in their writings. In the words of the artist, “Sometimes the imaginary doubles as an ideal companion to the reading/re-reading of all or part of the Authors’ works in a modern day setting.”
Roger Cummiskey lives and works in Mijas Costa and Dublin. His latest solo exhibitions “A Stroll Thro’ Ulysses” include The Roxy ArtHouse Gallery, Edinburgh, The Airfield Trust Gallery, Dublin, 2004; He represented Ireland at The Florence Biennale in 2003 also at International exhibitions in Stockholm, London and New York in 1999 and 2000. His works are part of public and private collections in Europe, The United States, Japan and China. This is Roger Cummiskey’s third exhibition in Spain. He is President of the Andalusian International Artists Group in Spain.

| I am a Dublin Watercolourist. I specialize in watercolor paintings, which take their themes and titles from the wanderings and writings of James Joyce, Samuel Beckett and other Literary and Historical personalities. This has come from a lifelong interest in attempting to interpret in paintings what James Joyce et al., so eloquently wrote about our native city, Dublin.
I call my collections, “A Stroll Thro’ Ulysses - Bloomsday 100” and “The River Gods of Ireland”.
New, unique and creative ideas are constantly being added.
