traditional Chinese ink painting, however he began
his own unique modern ink and water painting
path under the influence of modern art stream
from the Western during the 1960s, in which we
see the artist acquired the lines from the Chinese
calligraphy and developed his peculiar style. He
tried to explore the relationship between the
society, families, and the contemporaries through
his works which somehow reveal a sense of naivety
and romantic. After the 1990s, he dismissed
Chinese bronze inscriptions into his paintings
and created an atmosphere of contemporary art
language. He taught in many universities such ad
Chinese Culture University, Tunghai University and
National Taipei University of Education (now known
as University of Taipei), and held a numerous
exhibitions both in Taiwan and the overseas, and
he was also a jury to many art competitions.for
