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 THANKSGIVING!

 Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty


HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

What are you grateful for?  Has a friend relieved your stress with an act of kindness?  Did you accomplish something that makes you smile?  Are your loved ones happy and healthy?  Reflect on all the ways, big and small, that you've made the world a better place this year.  

I am grateful for you.  I had many expectations starting my art career many years ago.  But, I didn't anticipate how many wonderful friendships it would create.  The memorable moments we'd share.  And your kindness and support during difficult times.  THANK YOU for being you and have a wonderful holiday season!


Your Friend, 
Mike Kraus
