He initially studied under the renowned local calligrapher Master Liu Zhongli, meticulously copying classical landscape masterpieces, and has consistently engaged in plein-air sketching, traveling extensively throughout the mountains and rivers of Sichuan and Ba. His landscape paintings exhibit solid traditional brushwork and ink techniques, skillfully integrated with Western artistic methods, forming his unique style: rock textures are firm and resolute, compositions are grand and majestic, colors are brilliant and vibrant, brushwork is free and innovative, and his works are rich in vitality. With a solid foundation in traditional Chinese painting, combined with profound knowledge and application of Western color theory, he achieves a masterful fusion of Eastern and Western aesthetics, excelling particularly in color-ink landscape painting. His works have won numerous awards in national painting and calligraphy competitions and are highly cherished and collected by art enthusiasts both at home and abroad.
