The summer class at Shoreham is a 1931 by Franklin White, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a group of people sitting on the ground. They’re holding sticks and drawing in notebooks. Trees and bushes fill the background, but they’re just faint lines. One person is hunched over, looking down at their paper. The whole scene feels like a quick, rough study—not polished. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build up shading with lines.
