A Forensic Art Guide

This is a well-researched book on forensic art. It thoroughly covers most of the disciplines of forensic art. It is the only real textbook for the field. Karen's artist skills are clearly evident in the book's illustrations. She did a great job. I would recommend it for any forensic artist.

A must have !

Karen Taylor's book had only just arrived and been on my desk for a couple of days, when a new case, involving the remains of a young unidentified girl, presented itself. Going through the book I was immediately able to pick up a number of excellent suggestions of how best to handle the remains in order to improve the chance of identifying them.

But such practical solutions are not all this book is offering. Karen's attitude toward her work is highly professional, including aspects of behavioral science and a great sense of care and respect toward victims and their families.

Another reviewer has called this book The Bible on Forensic Art and I couldn't agree more. A must have for law enforcement officers who regularly deal with serious crime, homicides, missing person cases and unidentified victims.

A ONE OF A KIND GIFT FROM A TRUE PROFESSIONAL

AFTER HAVING KAREN TAYLOR AS ONE OF MY INSTRUCTORS AT A FORENSIC
ART SEMINAR I ATTENDED IN 1998 I EAGERLY AWAITED THE PUBLICATION
OF HER BOOK. IT IS A GIFT FROM KAREN TO ALL FORENSIC ARTISTS.
SHE HAS SHARED ALL HER KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE WITH US. IT IS
ESPECIALLY USEFUL TO FORENSIC ARTIST LIKE MYSELF WHO DO NOT GET
TO WORK ON MORE THAN A DOZEN OR SO CASES A YEAR.
I READ AND REREAD THE CHAPTER ON TESTIFING IN COURT BEFORE TESTIFING IN COURT FOR THE FIRST TIME ABOUT ONE OF MY DRAWINGS.

EVERY CHAPTER IS FULL OF PERTINENT INFORMATION. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN BECOMING A BETTER
ARTIST.

Forensic Art and Illustration written by Karen T. Taylor

I have found this book very informative. I am a portrait artist and I am very interested in learning as much as I can about Forensic Art! This is by far the best book I have ever read on this subject! It has taught me so much more about faces! I feel my drawing has improved because of the instructions in her book! I would recomment this book to anyone interested in Forensic Art or anyone who is a portrait artist.

The Forensic "Bible"

I'm an aspiring Forensic/Composite Artist and any question I've had, in my career so far, has been answered by
Karen Taylor's book (Forensic Art and Illustration). Every aspect of Forensic Art is covered. Everything from
a history lesson, 2D and 3D skull reconstruction, Interview procedures, guidelines to testify in court, materials,
to drawing techniques. The book is an essential tool that is just as important as my pencil and paper. If I need
assistance I'll get it from my Forensic "Bible".
