Thota Vaikuntam studied at the College of Fine Arts, Hyderabad and at the M. S. University in Baroda where he worked under the guidance of artist K.G. Subramanyan. He draws inspiration for his work from the rural areas of Andhra Pradesh. Vaikuntam paints colorful and elaborately dressed Telangana region men and seductive women. His muse is the sensuous and voluptuous women with their omnipresent vermilion bindis, draped in colourful sarees that highlight their dusky skin. The love for this subject can be traced back to his childhood, when he used to be fascinated by the impersonations of women characters by the male artists of the theatre groups that traveled to his village.
Several exhibitions of his works have been held in New York, London and Birmingham. The artist lives and works in Hyderabad.
