His philosophy of image making is derived from Taiji (太极) philosophy. He is constantly searching for balance and harmony in the dynamic image making process. This is similar to the fundamental building of Chinese Painting[9] His journal related to Chinese and Western calligraphic brushwork was published in year 2016.[10]
