In his ‘Calming’ Series, the artist's love for nature and natural surroundings is reflected in their work, which draws inspiration from the simplicity of Chinese watercolor paintings. They appreciate the natural scenery of Guilin and the interplay between the blue of the mountains with white-walled houses and their dark tiled roofs, accentuated by the blazing sun. This creates a simple beauty that embodies the interchangeable state of mountains and waters, art that captures the essence of the natural world.

​藍色是中國人喜愛的顏色，例如景泰藍、藍印花土布、靛青陶瓷，都是極受歡迎而歷久不衰的。 山水甲天下的桂林，捕捉那兒峰巒獨立如棋盤的別致風景。山巒雖然長久不變，但每日早晚霞霧間染上一抺藍色，自有一番變化萬千、天天不同的韻味。

「同時，也寓意要學習、要有青出於藍的態度，不斷進步。」

​​

至於山下一片紅花，則是凸顯自由開放的情景，沒有拘束。

「花是有生命的，今年開花結果，明年又可循環再吐艷發放，那與花店內給採摘下來包裝好的花束不同。 一片紅花，象徵生生不息之美。

​​

一片盛放的紅花又與紅彤彤的太陽互相呼應，太陽畫成不是工整的圓形，

而且設在畫作近中央的位置，表現出畫家的隨心隨性、不拘一格，

更巧妙地回應「半日閒」的意境，浮現優哉游哉的感覺。
