In this work dating from 1965, Liu Kuo-sung is still using an eruptive painting technique that exploits the texture of the material on which it is painted, but the structure is more tightly controlled, and the calligraphic brushstrokes are smoother and more flowing, creating a sense of serenity and remoteness. The overall effect of the painting is created by the combination of soaring black lines and the soft, grayish-white texture of the paper, cascading downwards from top to bottom. The use of darker color tones towards the edge of the canvas draws the eye of the viewer to focus on the brighter patches. In Yu Kuang-Chung's apt description, "It is the feeling of water, the feeling of the ethereal spirit, the feeling of the wind; it is the longing of the constrained for the unbounded, the search of the momentary for the eternal."
