On the basis of absorbing the experiences of predecessors, I draw inspiration from ancient models while innovating, emphasizing the use of Angle-Arc, Extension-Retraction, Bias-Weight,顺逆 (Smooth-Counter), Strength-Flexibility, Spiritual Obscurity, and Intermittency in brushwork and character structure. Papers such as "Imitating with Mental Focus, Shaping with Thought", "A Brief Analysis of Brushwork and Character Structure Involving Angle-Arc, Extension-Retraction, Smooth-Counter, Strength-Flexibility, Bias-Weight, Spiritual Obscurity, and Intermittency", and "Three Essential Guides to Reading, Tracing, and Copying Steles" have been warmly embraced and highly praised by peers. My works have won Outstanding Award, Silver Award, and Gold Award in multiple national calligraphy competitions; they have been included in various authoritative collections and are held in the National Museum, painting and calligraphy academies, and Chinese embassies abroad.
