An Indian painter who needs no introduction Thota Vaikuntam. His paintings striking imagery of the villagers colorfully draped in the traditional attire mesmerizes the viewer. His rich pallet of raw colors and strong charcoal drawings transforms a modest villager to an iconic subject. He has won several awards like the National Award, 1993, Hyderabad Arts Society award in 1973 and Bharat Bhavan Biennale award in 1988.
