Meet the Artist
Jay “Jubbish” Toups
Jay Toups is an internationally acclaimed adventure photographer and filmmaker. At 19 he began pursuing photography and fully converted his vehicle into a home to seek inspiration while being immersed in nature. He has spent years traveling the continent and making a life of exploration and art on the road.
After acquiring a degree in art history, Jay was heavily inspired by the dark and emotive nature of renaissance paintings and the way that color can tell stories. His passion for art and the outdoors soon evolved into being a full time artist, working with notable galleries and publications such as Time Magazine, National Geographic, and The North Face.
With a goal to create captivating art from some of the wildest places on earth, Jay has dedicated his life to making the beauty of nature accessible to all through the photos he brings to life.
A strong believer in the way that humans and nature are inexplicably connected, Jay’s work becomes less about the places he photographs and more about the way those places make him feel; he hopes those feelings of connection translate to your own life and emotions.
“Storyteller, seeker of beauty in the chaos of the mind.”
