After graduation, he founded the Fifth Moon Painting Society with his friends, which later became a key contemporary art society in Taiwan.

Since 1960s, Liu has been devoted to the innovation of the traditional Chinese ink painting and established a new approach which mixes tradition with Western arts.

Inspired by Western abstractionism, he discovered marbling techniques that give his work a special texture.

He even applies ink and color on a kind of coarse-fiber paper, which was invented by himself to create a white linear effect.

In 1968, Liu founded the Institute of Chinese Ink Painting, and his ink painting innovations were soon expanded to Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland.
