As a young child, I use to sit at my adult-sized knotty pine desk and look out the window. Sometimes I'd have a book. Most of the time it was multiple sheets of copy paper covered with doodles. I'd squirm on my vinyl chair and daydream looking at the birch tree outside. There was always a bird, squirrel, or butterfly taking advantage of it's barks and branches. Or the wind would blow making the trunk bend and peel away its layers.

Michael Kraus was born on the industrial shoreline of Muskegon, Michigan. After earning his Fine Arts Degree from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, he attended Grand Valley State University for his graduate degree. From there, he gained varied experiences from the Chicago Architecture Foundation, Art Institute of Chicago, Hauenstein Center For Presidential Studies, Lollypop Farm Humane Society, and the Children's Memorial Foundation. And every place he worked, he had his sketchbook with him and found ways to be actively creative. In 2014, Kraus became a full-time artist by establishing Mike Kraus Art. Since then, he has sold hundreds of paintings that are displayed in nearly every state and dozens of countries. Currently, Kraus lives in Rochester, New York with his beautiful wife and goofy dog.
