Edwin Lester Speaks on “Tough to Swallow”

Tough to Swallow by Edwin Lester

Tough to Swallow Series by Edwin Lester

Last month we had the privilege to speak with Edwin Lester about one of his most famous works entitled “Tough to Swallow”.  Below you will find a portion of the extensive interview that we had with him where we discussed this piece and more. As usual, Edwin, who is a world renown artist and avid “paint-a-holic” was working on another soon to be released classic while speaking with us in his usual honest and down to earth style.
