PS I like the design.
Since youve kindly resuscitated this old thread, Tim, I thought I might as well take the time to reveal my sources. Here is the original 1981 slide photo approximately cropped to match the painting, along with the painting for comparison. The slide was not all that sharp, as photos go. I thought it might be interesting to see what I had to work with, and how the painting deviates.
