Introducing: Cam DeCaussin
- posted in Other Projects
I would like to formally announce my engagement and introduce you to my other half and fiance, artist Cam DeCaussin.
It is important to me that my viewers know this because we are both artists and I can definitely say that I would not be much good at my work without him. Together we work as a unit, not only as a couple, but also creatively. We brain storm together and work in the studio together. We go to art shows together and critique each other’s work. In fact I will rarely send out a painting for a client unless it gets Cam’s approval. Cam knows my work better than anyone.
Cam is an artist too…a photo realistic oil painter, we could not be more different in both the medium, process and style.
An Artistic Journey Together…
Cam and I met while studying art & design at Grand Valley State University. At first we were just friends and then classmates working and studying together in the studio during all hours of the day. Cam is the reason I got through my first and only oil painting class. I helped him when it was time to study watercolor too. We fell in love in the painting studios. We both graduated from the Illustration program and received our BFA (bachelor of fine art). I graduated in 2009 and Cam in 2010.
Cam and I will be married in the church we claim as our own,Immanuel Lutheran Church of Grand Rapids, Michigan in September 2012. Together, we stand on our solid foundation, Jesus Christ.
My new name will be Amy DeCaussin. I’m excited to change it, but a little nervous about my professional career because I’m afraid people won’t recognize me anymore. This is why I named my company Funamals, but my name is often still used with it too.
I feel that in addition to knowing my work, by knowing Cam and his work one can fully understand me better as an artist. Without him, you really only see half of the picture. I’m so glad to have this opportunity to share with you our life as it evolves.
