His paintings are in the National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi, Lalit Kala Akademi Collection and National Gallery, Madras.(Raman, A.S., The Southern Accent, Tamil Nadu Ovia Nunkalai Kuzhu, 2000)'The contemporary painter in India, like those in Europe and the United States, is on the constant search for new and more engaging medie for self expression. Batik work on clothes and cotton painting through ancient Asian crafts have come in handy once again as new media for picture making.[...] P. B Surendranath is one among them who has made excellent use of these techniques in his recent paintings on cloth. [...] Surendranath's recent paintings in the above media are more or less cubist-abstract. He began as a landscapist in the watercolour medium and is still known for his old techniques.'(excerpt from Art Trends: A Contemporary Art Bulletin, Volume 3, No. 3, April 1964) The artist, who was a Principal of Government College of Arts & Crafts, Kumbakonam, has taken part in many one man shows and won many awards, P.B. Surendranath's paintings are on display at Kasthuri Sreenivasan Art Gallery in Coimbatore. Surendranath was a contemporary of Paul Raj and studied at the Government College of Arts and Crafts in Madras, which is where Paul Raj studied some years earlier.
