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.

HAPPY 7TH SCOUT-IVERSARY!

 HAPPY 7TH SCOUT-IVERSARY!

EXTENDED COVID-19/CORONAVIRUS EDITION!  In the before times, we'd lazily wander around Corbett's Glen, the site of Scout's first walk after adoption.  To follow health and safety guidelines and avoid crowds, Scout-iversary has been extended to a full weekend and covers the Finger Lakes Region!






BUT WAIT!  THERE'S MORE!




Enjoy the sunlight now.  The next time you'll see it is in May...

Weird place to find a Roman highway

COVID-19/Coronavirus Discovery: Mountain bike paths are an absurd and tiring way to get lost in the woods.


Judging from the distance, looking at Boston...

So this is then looking toward Montreal...
