The Secret Paintings of Mike Kraus

¿¡SECRET ARTWORK!?

Did you know that many of my works have never been shared publicly?  This may happen for many reasons: business contract requirements, security, surprise gift, patron's personal request, and so many more.  These artworks are created, shipped, and displayed privately.  In a few cases, my work is locked away in vaults with no plans to ever be viewed.  Once my creations leave my studio, they take on lives of their own.  Many are very unique and different from my other works.  What kind of art am I unable to show you?

Sometimes, living in Upstate New York is like living in a postcard. Every trail we hike reveals the beauty of nature. Dense forests give way to open fields. We find a comfortable spot to snack and take in all the sights, sounds, smells, and feel of the lake. "If this isn't nice, what is?"

Where is your favorite place? Who do you go there with? Why is it so special to you? How does it make you feel?
