Michael Alford is pleased to announce his upcoming show at Wimbledon Fine Art. This major exhibition of over 30 new works includes examples of the artist’s trademark nudes and London cityscapes as well as seasonal beach scenes. A unique series of plein air oil sketches, painted exclusively for this show, highlight views of Wimbledon Common and The Village.
