Tom Lipka - painted window screen. Signed LR, dated 1985. H 28" W 33-3/4". Baltimore outsider artist. Collection of Jim and Nancy Glazer. Tom began painting window screens in 1945 at age ten. He watched an itinerant screen painter, later identified as a Canton neighbor, Alonzo Parks. The similarity between the two masters' work is evident in every aspect of their signature Red Bungalow. After a career with Baltimore City, Tom rekindled his painting career in the 1980s. Screen painting examples are in the collection of the Visionary Museum in Baltimore, Md. Work by Lipka is featured in Elaine Eff's book, The Screen Painters of Baltimore, 2013. Please refer to this think for a high-res image. https://www.dropbox.com/s/47rmegcq0iumv3h/1081125_1.jpg?dl=0
