ABOUT THE STUDIO







JTR Studio is the archive of my father, Jonathan T. Raup (1962-2020). He was self-taught and worked for about fifty years in sumi-e ink, charcoal, pen, and pencil. He also wrote poetry and practiced Buddhism. He gave his work away freely and never exhibited it in his lifetime.

“This is how I live on, through other people,” he said as he handed out more of his artwork freely. 

JTR Studio collects, scans, and catalogues that work so it can be preserved and seen. The first exhibit opened at Strobe Space in July 2026.

So much gratitude for those who helped put this event together.
