Daily Inspiration: Wayne White

I recently saw a documentary on Netflix called 'Beauty Is Embarrassing" about the prolific artist Wayne White. Although many of us haven't heard his name before his art is embedded in our childhood memories. For all of us who watched Pee Wee's Playhouse, Wayne was one of the central artist on the show. The thing that stood out to me the most was not Wayne's awesome art, but his 'Fuck It' attitide. Thats the only way it can be described. He does whatever the hell he wants without fear of disapproval. He scoffs at high society art and, in turn, his pieces are now highly coveted by the same people he makes fun of. There's a certain humor in his art, basically he's saying 'Don't take this shit too seriously'. My favorite part of the doc is when he states that the American dream is to have "Fuck You' money. Although his definition is slightly different then my own (he goes on to talk about the philosophies of Ayn Rand See: http://larecord.com/interviews/2012/09/10/wayne-white-gasoline-for-the-human-soul), I've taken this phrase and run with it. We all would ultimately would love to have 'Fuck You' money allowing us to do what we want without having to be tied down to a 9-5 job. This is my goal and I'm sticking with it! #Jenandjuice #BaskClub #Fuckyoumoney #WayneWhite
