Let's Enjoy the Last Days of Summer!

Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty

August is for roasting s'mores on brisk nights at the backyard fire pit. Sharing stories while your furry family member snores under your chair. Appreciating the peaceful hooting of an owl and the sparks of the fireflies.

Home is a special place. It's where you make memories with the people you love. A place that reveals who you really are and how you'd like the world to be. So surround yourself with joy and happiness.

Your Friend,

Mike 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 thousands 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.
