Figured another one out thanks to Stackoverflow.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43454882/paint-over-qlabel-with-pyqt
My paintEvent was done on QWidget, which was behind QLabel. Once the QLabel
got stylesheet'd it covered up my image I suppose. So paintEvent needed to
be implemented on the QLabel instead.
Attached is a working code. Not sure how many methods I should keep in
QWidget class vs move to QLabel class but here is what I have.
Next step I'll try out QPixmapCache.
