    Jordan S. Dill is a visual artist and editor of the Native American Village.

    Jordan is a mixed-blood, non-enrolled Tsalagi (Cherokee) of Irish, English and Tsalagi heritage, living on Mt. Hunger in Vermont.

    His art, fanciful and mesmerizing, is an ongoing narrative about the woods surrounding Mt. Hunger in Vermont, or what he calls the “Court of Leaves”.

    On his website he documents the characters of the Court in each piece, describing them with a poem or with his own impressions.

    We’ve collected a few pieces of his extraordinary art for this post that really take the viewer through an experience much like Alice in Wonderland.


    Please share your impressions of Jordan’s art in the comments below…

      Pro tip: Artist has the shortcut commands to blur, smudge and liquify tattooed to the inside of his eyelids.

    • Morten

      One of a kind stuff!
      The front view of the eagle is awesome!

      A tutorial on how to do something like this in Photoshop would have been great…

    • http://www.empfehlenswert-wien.at wien

      Amazing, great work

    • http://photoshoplove.com photoshoplove.com

      Awesome work!!

    • http://twitter.com/carlosinho Karol K.

      Very interesting. The amount of detail is simply optimal. Not too much and not too little.

    • Reddy

      @Morten – take a random photo to photoshop, apply a filter or two (internet is full of them), blur, smudge and liquify it a bit, adjust colors aaaaand done. Anyone can do it, really.

    • shaymein

      agreed. first thing i thought was liquify filter much…

    • http://www.courtofleaves.org jordan s. dill

      Would love to see you demonstrate.

    • http://www.webdesignerdepot.com Walter

      @Reddy, gotta agree with Jordan here. There’s a lot more to these awesome pieces of art than just a few Photoshop filters.

    • http://richbugger.wordpress.com Richie

      Nice… something different from the other artists…. unique and audacious ….
      @walter … u are right… it may look doable … but there’s lot more into it than just Photoshop stuff

    • http://richbugger.wordpress.com Richie

      yep … me too ;)

    • http://www.courtofleaves.org jordan s. dill

      Indeed…actually *no* PS filters are used. The primary vehicle is (corel) Painter

      Folks…I’d like to thank all who have commented. I am not quite sure how this all started but I am very grateful! :)

      Perhaps I can shed some light. These works are painted with Jordan’s own custom designed brushes in Corel Painter… rest assured, there is no blur, smudge or liquify involved.

    • Eric Grint

      Very Impressive :)

    • http://www.r4-karte.ch nintendo dsi r4

      The art is just awesome and mesmerizing. I liked all the pics with the awesome art works. Great creativity.

    • http://www.martiandesign.com dp

      I agree completely with Reddy.

      looks like he ran a few photoshop filters on an image.

      Bad post.

    • http://www.courtofleaves.org jordan s. dill

      Folks…just like to get out that no PS filters have been used in this/my work.

    • http://www.koda-creative.co.uk Jaso

      Nice work Mr jordan s. dill. Very inspiring, and like all things I really like, I rarely know how it was achieved.

    • Sahar

      Hard work done on them, bautiful color combination though, very scary, reminds me of hell.

    • Mark

      I feel like someone got carried away with the smudge tool in Photoshop… anyone with half an idea for composition could do this… :/ Maybe try something a little more… thoughtful? I dunno, I feel like I could easily reproduce any of these.

    • Jordan

      Folks…thanks to all for the positive remarks!

      As to Mark, “I dunno, I feel like I could easily reproduce any of these.” Feel free to post a url pointing to some of your easy reproductions.

      Jordan
