In his paintings, there are often poets' literary rhymes, the Zen freehand style of the literati's freehand, the simple and concise expressive shape, the smart and smooth calligraphy lines, and the bold brushwork bearing, which not only make the works inherit the cultural ideas of traditional Chinese painting, but also highlight the spirit of the times and self-feelings.
