He is best known for the "boneless" technique. This method avoids the use of black ink outlines. He applied layers of diluted colour directly to the surface. This creates a soft transition between hues. In works such as Herbaceous Peony and Tree Peonies, the petals appear to emerge from the paper. He studied his subjects in person to capture their natural structure. This technique was a departure from the more rigid styles of his contemporaries.

His botanical studies appeal to modern collectors who value clarity. The compositions are often sparse and elegant. The absence of heavy lines makes his work feel light. Prints of Lotuses on a summer evening or Carnations and amaranthus suit rooms with a minimalist aesthetic. His art offers a direct connection to the natural world. It remains popular for its balance and technical precision.
