My name is Galina Georgieva and I am from Targovishte - a little town in North East Bulgaria, Eastern Europe.
   I graduated from the National Academy of Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria in1998.
   I have always wanted to paint since a very early age and find that I enjoy life more fully when I am creating and painting. 
   For me painting is like a drug as it is large part of my life that I need to do in order to enjoy myself. 
   When I paint I need to be alone to create my own space, because I need to clear all the trivialities of daily life from my mind which enables me to approach my work with an open and receptive mind that creates a kind of purity in my work.
 Sometimes when I am painting, I find that I return to being of a child-like mind but on other days, I find that aggression is the more powerful force but once my feelings are displayed on the canvas, somehow everything seems to quieten down into a form of melancholy.
     I leave my emotions and intuition to guide me when I paint. More ideas arise from the little details such as colour, spot, line … my imagination helps me to achieve the final result. 
I like my works to have their own harmony, their own world and their own place. Often one idea leads to a thousand other ideas in my mind and this is very difficult for me to keep directed into one straight channel. 
   Personally I am very extreme, and find that my moods are constantly changing. I like contrasts, but enjoy the tranquility that I am sometimes able to achieve. I highly appreciate the freedom and individuality of every person and I respect especially things that come from new age and have their roots in a new generation. 
   I like to listen Bjork, watch films produced by Vim Venders, eating chocolate, and making plans for the future … 
I think though that it is important to appreciate the present and what you have at the moment. The most beautiful things in my life are in front of me and my future I hope that my artworks will be more valuable …. If I can be so presumptious!!
