From Library Journal
Taylor has an exquisite way with watercolors and can describe in detail how he does it. Unfortunately, his prose style is very dry, and he is stuck with a book format that works against him. The layout for the step-by-step demonstrations is cramped, making the reproductions too small to be useful. Paul Riley's Intimate Landscapes: How To Paint Close-Up Views in Watercolors (LJ 11/15/97) covers the same genre in a much more comprehensive and successful manner.
