"If there is one artist who vividly captures the telugu culture, life, ethos and charm of myriad moods of characters from epics or day to day life, it is Bapu. His works are nothing but treasure trove of telugu culture that are to be preserved for posterity". His paintings sway the hearts for generations .Since 1945 he has been doing story illustrations, cartoons, comic strips and cover designs for telugu magazines. Bapu has devoted his life to pursue his passion for creativity.

Bapu's illustrations have appeared with works of almost all the writers appearing in print in telugu.Writers consider it a privilege to have his artwork as they feel they are not just illustrations but intelligent interpretations. Bapu's genius can be seen in his exquisite arts where the men show valour and extreme kindness, while the women are depicted with rich ethnic glamour and dignity.

Government of Andhra Pradesh has announced the setting of a permanent art gallery of his works “Bapu Bommala Koluvu" at Hyderabad. Bapu's paintings are instant eye-catchers. The use of simple bright colours is easy on the eye. And his unique style of economy of strokes, freehand drawing and non-usage of background clutter makes the painting simple and beautiful.

The highlight of his art works is the about one and half metre long “Ramayana at a glance,” which depicts Sita's swayamvaram, Rama's exile, the confrontation with Ravana and Sita's sacrifice.
