...easily the gaudiest aviator in Asia. His trademark was a black flying suit-a legacy of secret night missions over North Viet Nam in 1964, dropping saboteurs.

He also affected pearl-handled pistols in the cockpit, and has a considerable gun collection, to which he added in Honolulu with the purchase of a .357 Magnum and a symbolically-named Colt .45 Peacemaker.

Edward Ruscha, 27, limns with the same T-square edge precision that is the trademark of hard-edged pop. But to him, "Andy Warhol's soup cans are too syrupy sweet." Ruscha prefers to paint what he calls "facts," words, corporate symbols or even filling stations, which he sees as machine monuments in the Western scenery, way stations in the wilderness.
