Hey there! Im Dustin, you may know me by Dustin Detan Wayne Lindell, or somewhere in between.lol  I can cover almost any medium of art and/or concept you throw at me, including Photography, Graphic Design, Tattooing, Childrens Literature and Illustration, Drawing, Painting, Sculpting, I have many artistic hobbies. Im ALSO a stylist and Makeup Artist, im a Jack of all trades.  I LOVE ART, I LOVE CREATING IMAGES AND EMOTIONS WITH COLORS AND TEXTURES AND THOUGH OUT THEMES. I love taking ordinary and making it extraordinary. The thing that keeps me going everyday is reminding myself that IM AN ARTIST, NOT FOR THE SAKE OF FORTUNE OR FAME, BUT FOR THE SAKE OF MY SOUL. However, naturally alittle recognition would be great.lol LOOK AT WHAT I DO AS A NOBODY LIMITED CAUSE I HAVE NOTHING, IMAGINE WHAT ILL DO AS SOMEBODY WITH SOMETIME AND SOME MONEY...Im working hard to upgrade equipment, so that i create more than magic, cause thats just what i love to do. I have an artist eye that i think few truely every get the pleasure of experiencing in life, and im proud of that.

I attended The Art Institute International Minnesota for a short time(long enough to learn what I felt I needed to improve), to sharpen my skills, then because its an expensive school and im a starving artist I took that basic information I needed, and self taught from there.
I attended Central Beauty School, graduated 2008.
Ive had special training in COLOR THEORY/CHEMISTRY, and Ive mastered neuatrality (how to neutralize colors, whether it be with hair, or photographs or whatever) and color in general, Ive mastered many other things as well.

I like to think of myself as a PROFESSIONAL AMETAUR because I have the artistic ability to create outstanding quality and concept, BUT im still working on building up the equiptment needs and only have some basic lighting. I shoot with an Olympus E-500 DSLR (nothing special, but its enough to keep me shooting on a semiprofessional level.)

I have covered many areas of photography, weddings(which im not a fan of, but I will do them), senior photos(which I LOVE), fashion(my fav), music and many more.

I also apprenticed at laughing dragon tattoo for two years and love to tattoo.
I attentended the Professional Career Development Institute for childrens literature but did not finish out the degree with the intentions of using that knowledge for hobby purposes only.

I HAVE NOT done any nudes, I WOULD like to dabble into SOME nude photography for the just for the experience though and I do have a few great ideas for a shoot (avant garde, tasteful and artsy) shots, whether it be with men or women or both, but i dont know my own comfort level with that and although i would like to try some, its not my primary focus...(forgive my director-ism lol if we do a shoot in that area, ill do my best. I like the keep the mood fun, so i think that will help.)

***AS FAR AS MODELS GO***
Im looking for models[scratch that] actors/actresses that understand modeling is more than capturing great images of theirselves, but more so of creating an image/mood, you are playing a character... if you werent roleplaying, it would portrait work, not modeling. Im looking for people who what to act and who ENJOY taking their job seriously and WITH CONFIDENCE!  Keyword being ENJOY, so they can still have a good time working.
When I have an Idea for a shoot, I usually have a script, that explains EXACTLY what i have in mind, colors, mood, what im looking for out of the models, that way you as the model can preplan for poses, expressions, clothing, etc...
CURRENTLY IM LOOKING INTO DOING SHOOTS WHERE I DONT PAY YOU, NOR DO YOU PAY ME, WE JUST TRADE FOR EXPERIENCE AND PORTFOLIO BUILDING... SO IF YOU ARE SERIOUS AND INTERESTED IN MY STYLE, OR WORKING WITH ME PLEASE DONT HESITATE TO WRITE. ID BE HONORED, WOMEN OR MEN.
