Hi Mike, thanks for the compliment!  I have actually started a painting of Janis with the Porsche, I hope to get back to it after the autumn shows and finish it soon.  It has been fun watching the taped TV interviews with Janis and Dick Cavette (on uTube) and getting a sense of her as a person, she was delightful and humorous.  I did see her in concert three times in the 1960's, including Woodstock. I guess that's why I am drawn to these people!
