My name is Liam aka Nacho McCartan. Nacho because its my favourite food (I only eat a singular chip), and Liam because my mother was a massive fan of Liam Neilsen who is rumoured to be my real father.
I would describe myself as an award winning breakdancer, erotic novelist and pop art enthusiast.
When I am not water skiing in Monte Carlo, or sky diving sans pants, I can be found drawing tasteless nudes and cartoon characters. I am particularly drawn to the cartoons of yesteryear, which were equal parts gratuitous violence and comedy. Where the antagonist never won, and there was a very clear line of who was inherently good and who was bad (you know it sha’more).
Also the colour and style of these cartoons belong to a certain era. An era where aggression was seamlessly infused with comedy, and marinated in a rich gravy of technicolour. These days cartoons are mostly focused on banal activities like dogs who can put out fires, and pigs that can fly helicopters, there is nothing remotely offensive in them. They are a PC wet dream, they are also incredibly yawn inducing.
No more being blown up with dynamite or tied to train tracks, being kicked in the face or being poisoned. Not like the good old days. These drawings are a shout out to the characters I loved, who made me laugh and hold my breath in suspense. Those characters I also routinely masturbated too.
Please enjoy these works, because I would like to retire after this exhibition and return to my golden shack in the woods where I can go back to blowing up innocent wildlife, wrestling bears and fishing topless like Vladimir Putin.
A portion of each sale will be donated to the “Liam Neilson Pie Museum” a cause I am dedicated too.
