Tim Costeloe (G 67-72), now a retired art teacher in New Zealand, has been spending some of his ‘lockdown’ time sketching scenes in and around Wellington which give an impression of some of the things happening around him and how he interpreted them. Some of his drawings, which are well worth viewing and often quite idiosyncratic, can be seen below. Tim says, “The images were done to amuse myself as the world focused on only one thing. They are my take on what my government was doing and how my life was being impacted by it. I developed my love of things artistic at Loughborough University and then went off to teach in New Zealand, where I have been ever since the age of twenty four.  I have married a Kiwi and have two sons, both involved in the creative industries. I retired very recently and now concentrate on doing the things which I have taught over the last thirty six years. My enthusiasms include sculpture, print making, ceramics and constructing unusual furniture, though I am not especially accomplished in anything.”
