Review: I bought this book based on a rave review in the Spring 2000 issue of "Raw Vision." The review (as usual) was right on target -- "Wonders to Behold" is a brilliant book on a remarkable artist.

Summary: What's There Is Great
Review: Wonders To Behold presents an excellent look at the 13 paintings from Myrtice West's Revelations series. There are some wonderful paintings in this group and all the images are presented full page. There are around 3-4 pages of introductory text and analysis of each painting by various folk collectors, critics and artists. So far this is the only book soley devoted to West's artwork and therefore the best. My main gripe is that in addition to the 13 Revelation paintings reproduced, there are only a few other paintings shown. I would have liked to have been able to see more of Myrtice West's artwork in addition to the 13 Revelation paintings. Its a short look at a narrow focus of her artwork and left me wanting to see more. For a [price] cover price, it's rather pricey for the number of color reproductions you get. 3 stars for the great artwork shown, but I was expecting to see more.
