About Monica

Monica Popham is an artist and illustrator from Gibraltar, who is currently based in Guildford. She studied Fine Art at Loughborough University and graduated in 2021. Monica’s main body of work focuses on the tangible quality of sunlight, and how it interacts with the architecture in Gibraltar and other Mediterranean towns.

She captures the synergy between sunlight and buildings through photography and paint and plays with the vibrancy and scale of the pieces, varying from small, intimate tiles to larger paintings.

Monica has worked on a variety of projects such as large scale murals, book covers and private commissions. She has recently won Landscape Artist of the Year 2024 and has completed a commission for the Science Museum on the renewable energy and innovation happening in Orkney.
