Later, he studied with Zhang Liping, the dean of Xiamen University of the Arts. Using oil paint as a medium to express the charm of Chinese painting has always been his main creative idea. The complementary performances between the two fully demonstrate the limits that traditional ink and rice paper cannot express. 

The texture of oil painting and the artistic conception of Chinese painting are different from tradition, but not far from it. There are subtle and wonderful embellishments in the drips and splashes, and the exploration of traditional culture is contained in the beautiful image.
