In his 80s, Wu committed himself to the creation of classical Chinese paintings, reforming the style to carry on traditions and make it adaptable to a modern context. His influence came from great modern painters and innovators of ink art such as Li Keran and Huang Zhou. He stayed in the United States for years, studying the use of colors in Western art.
