When he was young, his family was poor, and he learned to tie paper flowers with his father. Around the age of 20, he engaged in painting and made a living from it.

His painting was far away from the Huang Zhen school, close to the Ming Dynasty Lü Ji, who wrote flowers and feathers and walking animals, and was known for his precision and beauty, and was also good at painting ladies. The creation of the "Nanping School" sketch, which is highly respected by the Japanese people, is known as "the first imported painter".
