I am counting A Masterclass In Drawing And Painting Landscapes: Learn To Produce Beautiful Compositions In Oil, Acrylic, Gouache, Watercolor, Pencil And Charcoal as read. It is a text book and I have been doing sections as needed. I have a 700 page monster tome that I thought I would have finished in April but am only halfway through. And I've another book I just started reading a few days ago that I am already half way. I will count those when they are finished, as I have read at least half in April.
