"Reid's book on painting portraits in watercolor is a classic, and difficult to find. Our library had a battered copy, obviously well used. I think it is valuable for its help on drawing accurate faces, and for its loose approach to color. He isn't for the casual beginner, but painters who want help and inspiration can't go wrong with this book."
