Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty
As the year gently comes to a close, I wanted to pause and simply say "thank you." Your kindness, encouragement, and friendship mean more to me than I can easily put into words. The only reason I am able to spend my days creating and sharing beauty is because of people like you who believe in it and support it.
This season always reminds me that art is not just about color on a wall. It is about connection, memory, joy, and hope. I am deeply grateful that we get to share that belief and walk this creative journey together.
I hope your holidays are filled with warmth, laughter, and meaningful moments with the people you love. I look forward to continuing to add more beauty to the world together in the year ahead.
With gratitude and friendship,
Mike
My Story
Hi, I’m Mike the artist of Mike Kraus Art Inc.
I’ve been making art since I could hold a crayon. As a kid, I’d fill every notebook, homework margin, and scrap of paper with doodles. I sold my first artwork in junior high, sketching in class and handing off pieces between periods. That early love for making things never faded. I followed it all the way to the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and eventually, I decided to stop treating art as a side hustle and make it my life’s work.
My paintings are full of energy, motion, and saturated color. I’m drawn to bold shapes and organic lines—forms that feel alive. I create with the hope that my work brings something beautiful and uplifting into someone’s day. Whether it’s a spark of joy, a moment of calm, or just a splash of color that makes you pause—I want my art to connect with something real.
Now, I’m lucky enough to paint full-time, with collectors across the U.S. and in dozens of countries around the world. But more than anything, I still feel like that kid with a crayon, excited to create. I’m grateful to share this journey with you—and I hope you find something in my work that makes your world a little brighter.
