In To be Simple and Thin, the flowing lines in this artwork resemble streams of water washing over the canvas. Varying in thickness, they intersect or overlap, aggregating to a sense of vitality. This piece draws inspiration from the artist's encounter with an old cypress tree. As he approaches the tree, it ceases to be an independent, distant image and dissolves into a world of interweaving details and textures. Part of the Contemplate series, the lines rushing across the canvas captures the fluid essence of life, leaving traces that flow through the subject itself. Three distinct planes carve out sudden depths amidst the textures, yet the lines do not halt; instead, they continue to stretch endlessly onward. The contrast between the ethereal quality of the lines and the solidity of the planes, as well as the delicacy of the lines against the fullness of the overall composition, creates a dynamic interplay. This coexistence of subtlety and substance, lightness and fullness, reflects the complex relationship between the individual and nature.

《冲淡》画如其名，流淌的线条好似水流冲刷过画面。仔细观察后，这些线条并非整齐排列。它们粗细不定，时而交叉或是重叠，带来一种生命力。这件作品的灵感来源于艺术家对于一棵老柏树的主观体验。在观察的过程中，柏树的细节占据了全部视野，树也不再是一个完整的个体，而是由各个局部互相融合，转换而成。作为《持颐》系列作品中的一件，《冲淡》中蔓延开来的纹理所捕捉的就是这种物象本身的流动性。画面中的三个块面在纹理中突然凿出了深度，但线条并没有因此停留，而是继续延伸。线条的虚与块面的实相对比，单根线条的纤薄同样与画面整体的盈满相对比。这种虚与实、淡与满的共存反应的是个体之于自然的微妙关系。
