In more than thirty years of his Western-style painting career, he, together with many others such as Liu Haishu, Guan Liang, Xu Beihong, organized societies and studios to promote the teaching of sketching and painting. With the support of Cai Yuanpei, he established Chinese Art University together with Ding Yanyong.

In the same year, she pursued her study in Japan where she attended several important art exhibitions. Affected by Fauvism, she was one of the pioneers of western painting in China then. In 1930, her oil painting Narcissus was published as postcard by Japanese government. After returning home, she held solo exhibitions many times in Shanghai. Her works are collected by National Art Museum of China and selected into large-scale oil painting albums such as World Famous Paintings, Chinese Oil Painting, Chinese Oil Painting Collection of the 20th Century, etc.
