‘The Lough Neagh Monster’ Painting by Francois Got Buffed

Belfast-based Artist and Illustrator Ray (Francois Got Buffed or FGB for short) is the latest artist to exhibit at On the Square. It’s likely that you will have already seen his work – his pop-art inspired murals have brightened up many a street around Belfast, an instantly recognisable style that he has honed throughout his career.

Ray’s work is a beautiful blend of the old and the new, merging classic art with modern creativity. By taking old oil paintings and adding their own touch, they have created a series of artwork that is both familiar and completely new. The landscapes, which were once barren and mundane, are now full of life and fantasy creatures, each painting telling its own unique story. 

• Vintage oil on canvas landscape painting of a coastline with a farmer and horse ploughing a field in the foreground
