Detailed Caricatures,
Portrait and Landscape Artist

I am a self-taught artist, recently retired from my business UK Caricatures but continue to paint for my own pleasure. In a leisurely way, I am currently producing a collection of paintings of scenes along the River Wey with a view to exhibiting them as a collection when I have enough to do so.
I've been painting at home in Bookham near Leatherhead in Surrey since 1986, after a career as a cartographic draughtsman. All of my work was commissioned by businesses and private individuals. I work mainly in gouache watercolour, but I occasionally use graphite pencil and oils.
I rarely exhibit my work but have had one exhibition in Leatherhead Theatre, where 2 of my paintings were stolen! The first and only time it has happened at that venue in 25 years.
For the previous 25 years, I had been concentrating on producing 'caricature' or humorous portrait watercolour paintings for businesses around the UK. My 'caricatures' are NOT really caricatures in that I do not exaggerate the facial features of the person and they are not quick sketches or drawings.
My clients have always preferred to see the subjects being instantly recognisable. Each one takes me several days to complete so I DO NOT attend functions, weddings etc. where a quick sketch artist is required. I am happy to undertake a painting or drawing on any subject, providing a nice clear photo reference is supplied. Occasionally, if the photo/s are not of sufficient quality, I take the photographs myself, if it's feasible to do so.

Businesses and private individuals around the country have been delighted with David’s paintings and drawings since 1986. His corporate caricatures have graced the walls of many homes and offices for over 25 years. Over that time, his work as a caricature artist has brought a wealth of experience, acquired to meet customers' needs.
Each picture is normally supplied mounted and framed or unframed if preferred. His role as caricature artist has won him many corporate commissions. Satisfied corporate customers to date include: Agfa, BP, GlaxoSmithKline, Biwater, Sainsbury Savacentre, Thorn Lighting Ltd., Lafarge Roofing, British Army and many more.
‘This painting was completed for coursework, when I studied Illustration for a year at Kingston University in Surrey, UK. It was to illustrate a scene from Dylan Thomas’ ‘Under Milk Wood’. My Granddad posed as the vicar who has just thought of such a brilliant line in his poetry that he doesn’t look where he is dipping his pen.’

Will’s main reason for becoming an artist is from a passion for creativity.
“There is rarely any strong meaning or message behind my work – narrative takes a large role because I like the work to be emotive through what is being portrayed, but creativity is the driving force behind all of my paintings”
From 2008 to 2010 Will Rochfort worked as an Official Artist for the 2012 London Olympics, working with Olympic Gold Medalists, producing paintings in support of the Games and its associated charities.
As well as completing several portrait commissions, Will Rochfort is always searching for new ideas for paintings and usually finds this in books or cinema. With influences ranging from Degas to Rockwell, to the films of Steven Spielberg, it is narrative that really interests Will and he always aims to have a story within his work.
“I am a very visual painter and with the public being my target audience over the art establishment, I always aim to depict scenes that, through the characters portrayed, I hope people can relate to and enjoy”

‘I love Film Noir movies. This painting is completely character-driven and the narrative is so strong that it couldn’t survive without it, but I don’t mind that because the characters are so strong. All thanks go to my friends, who posed once again and put their all into it. The painting was a lot of fun and developed itself as it went along.
I got three quarters of the way through another version of this painting (all in black and white), before abandoning it and starting again, because the composition wasn’t working. The new design progressed so much better that I didn’t have to work very hard at all.’
