🍂🍁 Autumn Starts Here 🍁🍂

Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty


Today is the big day!
The Awesome Autumn Art Festival is officially open and you are invited to step into a season of color, creativity, and connection. It is all happening online at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1934458910278595, which means you can experience it wherever you are.

We all know how easy it is to let days slip by without doing something special for ourselves. Screens fill up with work, errands pile on, and before long the spark of inspiration feels far away. But art has this amazing ability to pull us out of the routine and remind us of beauty, joy, and possibility.

That is exactly why this festival exists. Think of it as a door you can open with a single click. Inside you will find fresh artwork, live moments with artists, and a chance to see the season through new eyes. There is no pressure and no ticket lines, just a vibrant space waiting for you to explore.

The best part is how personal the experience becomes. Every piece you see will spark something a little different in you, whether that is a memory, a new idea, or simply the calm of pausing to take it in. Art is not just something to look at, it is something to feel.

So here is your easy step. Pour yourself a cozy cup of tea or coffee, join us at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1934458910278595, and enjoy the Awesome Autumn Art Festival right now. The community is already gathering and the first artworks are ready for you to see.

This is your chance to make today memorable. Let the art carry you into the season with a sense of wonder and warmth.

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.
