True Art Is Incomprehensible: Difference between revisions

** And finally, in the context of the first link [http://www.jaynaylor.com/betterdays/archives/2008/03/chapter-20-the-27.html this]. Mr. Naylor seems to carry a smidgeon of a grudge.

* Usually not addressed in ''[[Boy Meets Boy]]'', where Mikhael was an artist, but played around with a bit in a few strips, [http://boymeetsboy.keenspot.com/d/20021128.html starting here], where he made a film of himself working in a coffee shop.

* A running joke in ''[http://www.candicomics.com/ Candi]'' is that the title character's art professor always gives her low grades because her art is comprehensible.

** Later turned around; he gave her lower grades not because her work was "comprehensible", but because she very rarely did anything outside of her own very narrow interests and wouldn't push her artistic boundaries beyond "Draw comics and anime art" despite being in a general art class. When he explained this to her, it cast a different light on his prior actions.

* ''[[xkcd]]'' [http://xkcd.com/451/ mocks the trope], taking the side that the emperor indeed has no clothes. It's a comic written with jokes about mathematics, physics, computer science, and similar hard science topics. [http://xkcd.com/520/ ''Biology''] is the soft science of choice in the comic.

* Parodied in ''[[My Milk Toof]]'' when Lardee makes some art for Carrot. [http://mymilktoof.blogspot.com/2012/02/things-for-carrot-4.html ickle doesn't get it].
