> drawing very basic shapes, usually circles, and erasing parts that don't make sense

There's a hilarious Spongebob bit [0] where Squidward is teaching an art class, and he starts off in that exact manner of trying to draw a perfect circle, only to have Spongebob subvert the entire idea. The whole episode is artistic gold IMO.

I do remember that. Sorry I can't find a better website but this is a similar joke.

The origin of this is the “how to draw an owl” pic

Except The Tick was drawn in 1988, so has somewhat a prior art claim here.


Ah, didn't realize that was earlier, thanks
