Designer, sculptor and painter. In 1950s and 60s designed porcelain figurines for Institute of Industrial Design in Warsaw.  In 2005 he started cooperati with AS Cmielow Porcelain Manufactory. An outstanding mind inspired by nature and man himself. Artist, favorably reviewed by critics of contemporary art. 

Lubomir Tomaszewski signed up in  the history of post-war Polish design as a man of extraordinary talent, even though he devoted only 10 years of his life to the discipline porcelain sculptures. After World War II, he took up studies at the Architecture Department of the Warsaw Technical Academy and at the Sculpture Department of the Academy of Fine Arts. After three years’ study he o drop out of the WTA. He graduated the Academy of Fine Arts in 1955.

In 1956 Tomaszewski began working with the Ceramics and Glass Studio of the Institute of Industrial Design (IWP) in Warsaw.  Tomaszewski with four others talented sculptors (Henryk Jędrasiak, Mieczysław Naruszewicz and Hanna Orthwein) created a new style of porcelain chamber sculpture - they they simplified the shapes and eliminated small decorative elements. 

Lubomir Tomaszewski created over 30 of porcelain sculptures of which the most popular were the zoomorphic figures: Hen, Rooster, Greyhound, Raven and Camel, as well as Singer, Girls in flares, Girl with mirror and Arab Girl. In 1961 artist began work on a new design – a model coffee set and And two modern sets were born bearing the names of his daughters: Ina and Dorota.

In 1966  Tomaszewski emigrated to the United States, and  began teaching at the Applied Art and Interior Design Department of Bridgeport University (in Connecticut). In America he returned to his passion for sculpture, and he also began experimenting with painting. In the United States, he began painting paintings with fire and smoke, and created unique sculptures in a "duet with nature" (using wood, stone, glass, metal). He founded and became the father of the international artistic movement called Emotionalism - appearing against the idea of "art for art". According to the Emotionalists, their works are to appeal to human emotions, drawing inspiration from nature.
