With all due respect to the souls buried by this bridge in downtown Auckland, you could not make a horror movie set look more authentic than this cemetery. Moss-covered burial sites and cracked tombstones fill a slope under the historic bridge. The place was wonderfully peaceful. I sketched in the company of some pigeons while the wind blew with force through the sacred grounds. A couple of days later, I returned with the participants of my USkSymposium class, which focused on adding writing to your sketches.
