Walberswick Marshes. is a 2 by Haite, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a messy, tangled landscape with lots of thin, scratchy lines. Bare trees twist across the top, their branches tangled like roots. Below, a flat, empty-looking marsh stretches out, dotted with a few small buildings and a fence. The whole thing is drawn in quick, uneven strokes—no smooth shapes, just rough, sketchy marks. The artist scribbled a note in the corner: *"with one eye on the Bull."* Not sure what that means, but it feels like they were rushing. The lines overlap in some spots, making it look almost like a mess—but that’s the point. If you like this sketchy style, check out cross-hatching.
