Fashion Illustrator Bil Donovan will teach a sketch class at Loews Regency New York Hotel on April 26.

 
Donovan, who was Christian Dior’s first Artist in Residence in 2009, is partnering with the Loews Regency to design a series of illustrations that bring to life several moments and experiences throughout the seasons. The class is the first of a new series titled, A Collection: Scenes from Park Avenue.
 
The first of four illustrations, which is a street view of the hotel, will be featured on tote bags, sleep masks, note cards and mugs, and will be available for purchase in the hotel lobby beginning May 1, 2016. In addition, there will be a Bil Donovan exhibit in the Julien Farel Restore Salon & Spa on the hotel’s second level, as well as complimentary post cards in each of the rooms.

Donovan is an artist, fashion illustrator and educator that has been utilized by Dior, Mercedes Benz, Neiman Marcus, Vogue, Saint Laurent, Town and Country, and Estée Lauder. He currently teaches at FIT and the School of Visual Arts.
