One of the first Shalva Bedoev formed in his statements the concept of national in modern Ossetian art. In his opinion, the national character of art is determined not only by the image of the characteristic national life, colors and forms of the surrounding nature, the gifts of the land on which the people live, their stories, but also by the reflection of national ideals and poetics of the world that have been forming over the centuries.
He introduces objects of Ossetian everyday life and the fruits of Ossetian land into his paintings, finds an adequate coloristic structure of his canvases, consonant with the colors of Ossetian nature and ancient architecture, as well as expressing traits of a national character with its external restraint and huge internal emotional energy.
