He is currently the Deputy Director of the Ink and Wash Painting Academy at China Education Television, a council member of the Quanzhou Hard-Pen Calligraphers Association, and a research fellow at the Wang Buqiang Carving Art Museum Quanzhou Branch, acclaimed as a renowned calligrapher of substantial achievement. Since childhood, he has been deeply passionate about calligraphy, diligently practicing during his spare time without ever slackening. Over the decades, he has received meticulous guidance from renowned masters such as Ms. Huang Hongqiong, Mr. Chen Zhisheng, and Mr. Wang Buqiang. He excels in both running and cursive script, while also studying seal and clerical scripts, and has delved into carving art, integrating the strengths of various schools into a unified style. His work embodies the ethereal grace of Wang Xizhi, the bold freedom of Zhang and Huai, and the spiritual structure of Ouyang and Liu, occasionally reflecting the elegant contours of Han dynasty clerical script. While rigorously practicing calligraphic techniques, he also deepens his study of calligraphic theory and carving art, continuously learning from and internalizing the profound and extensive heritage of Chinese Han culture. He often remarks, "The world's treasures originate from refinement." Thus, through dedicated and persistent study on the long journey of calligraphic art, he has cultivated a distinctive and unique artistic style today.
