Creativity
editNikola Georgiev's style is defined as "academic naivety".[2] His paintings are full of strange creatures, filled with grotesque and a little sadness because of human imperfection and helplessness. For him, the landscape is rather a rarity as a stand-alone work. Often, with his bright colours, the artist believes making the problems of everyday life more bearable. His works are also known from publications in periodicals. He had exhibitions of paintings and of cartoons, as a number of participations in general exhibitions. He has won several awards for satirical painting and caricature.[3][4][5][6]
