The painter and illustrator Jordi Machi has a great recognition inside and outside our borders. His works have been exhibited in several countries such as Italy, England, Brazil, Belgium, United States, Lebanon, etc. Precisely was this last one where he did an exhibition and, after selling all the paintings in a single night, he received several orders. He also received orders from Hollywood celebrities. All these experiences, as the artist himself acknowledges, have left in him unique experiences. Something that, in my opinion, can be reflected in his own work. As a result of these periods abroad, he speaks several languages and, doubtless, also dominates the most international language: the artistic one.
From the beginning of his artistic career he had an important international exposure since, while he studied Fine Arts at the University of San Carlos, he made several stays abroad, first in Venice and later in São Paulo.
Was in his university days when he began to show great interest in portrait, figurative painting and digital illustration, genres and techniques with which he now works brilliantly in a very personal style.
Inspired by a multitude of references, including the cartoons of his childhood, he tries to revive all those feelings that accompanied him during his childhood and painting is the means that allows him to do so. He takes also from the influence of a very large number of artists, to give an example, we will quote the American Norman Rockwell. Machí has worked in various fields, has not been dedicated to the portrait exclusively or since always although he has had his preferences, also the world of cinema gave him his opportunity and took advantage.
After his appearance in 2016 on the Christmas Eve special on Spanish Television where he painted a portrait of the singer Miguel Bosé, he appeared in the international newspaper "El País" being described as "the painter of the celebrities".
