Thank you to the attendees at our latest SchmoozeFest! on January 16. Our “SchmoozeFesters” provided a inspirational evening sharing their latest work and then networking with each other. It is always great to host these events in order to keep the spirit of creativity and mutual support alive within our creative community. We hope you can attend our next event Thursday, May 14, 6:30 to 9:30 P.M. at the Art Center-South Campus, 950 South Raymond Ave., Pasadena, CA. You never know who you will meet and what wonderful opportunities may arise…

- Our new “Crafting a Meaningful Career-Part One-Discovering the Dream” got off to a great start last week with a small but mighty class filled with highly talented people eager to take their careers to the next most meaningful level. If you have any questions about the class, or private consultations, you may contact the instructor at tony@tonylunacreative.com.

Ellen Friedlander, Photographer- “Good Morning Tony, …This past week has been equally crazy good. I was interviewed by Ibarionex (Perello) for his podcast, The Candid Frame, which will air tonight or tomorrow!
…and then on Wednesday I learned that one of my photographs from Betrayal made it to the TOP 20 of FOCUS, PHOTOLA.
OMG. It is a very very big week.

Thank you for YOUR support from the beginning! :)

Have a wonderful Sunday. “

- Charley Allen, Photographer, Book Publisher- “Hi Tony, Yesterday we had a meeting with the author and the illustrator of a children’s book… We were discussing materials, the construction, and the printing techniques for various elements such as; the cover material, the dust jacket printing techniques, the end sheet content and printing colors, the sleeve slipcase material, foil stamping, etc. We were also showing samples of books we have done where various different techniques were used.

When we were done our conference table was a mess and jumble of sample swatch books, our previously printed books, Pantone ink color swatches, and even the empty beverages we had consumed. Although this is a rather common situation around our studio, for some strange reason, I decided to photograph it and now want to share it. The creative process, more often than not is a messy affair with threads going this way and that before a decision is made. Please see the photo below and feel free to share it on your blog. P.S. Nothing was moved, styled, or art directed before this was taken. This is a real-life unscripted mess. :-) “

Mauren Brodbeck, Swiss multi-sensory artist- “Dear friends, collectors, and art lovers, I wish you a superb 2020 year colored with beautiful adventures, friendships, and creations.
I created as a gourmet sound piece entitled ‘Saucisses, Ustensiles et Air Frais (sausages, cooking tools and fresh air)’ is a creation made for OCTOPUS newspaper, an artistic journal and collections on culinary words, which will be again this year at the Geneva Art Fair booth A52. I invite you to come discover it as well as this beautiful culinary paper from today until Sunday, February 2nd.
This piece is a sound composition that offers a reflection on our domestic environment and is made only of sounds recorded while cooking sausages in my kitchen.
Nice listening!”
