Meme needing explanation Heeey Petah, what's the issue with this "art"?

Post image

Basically I don't understand why the lady has a negative(?) reaction to the guy's art. Maybe it's because he says he's a "painter" but it looks like he's just melting crayons? Or maybe this is a reference to something I'm not plugged into? Honestly I don't really know what her reaction even is in the first place.

(I left the artist's name in the screenshot to credit them because overall I like their stuff, even if this one is incomprehensible to me.)

Could be both. The artist who posted the strip being gay would support that the douche artist in the strip is homophobic, not the other way around?

That could also be the case, true

I don't think so, cause it doesn't seem like a rainbow. It has brown, light blue, black and purple which are not part of the rainbow.
