Your Friend,
Michael Kraus


PS - To hear about my artwork, process, and mutt, listen to Graphic Ear interview at WAYO 104.3FM at: https://www.mixcloud.com/graphic-ear/070518-graphic-ear-with-mike-kraus/

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.

An Exciting Autumn

Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty



As summer winds down, I hope you're able to look back and reminisce about good times with friends and family at beaches and BBQs.  For me, it's been a busy and inspirational season.  When I've not been in my studio, I've been traveling, being interviewed for various media, and looking for pools to cool down in from the unusual heat we've had this year.  As we transition to autumn, I'm looking forward to the changing scenery and festivals at places like Kettle Ridge Farm.  Still, I'm going to look for ways to absorb every last bit of that summer sun.


Your Friend,
Mike Kraus
