After moving to Taipei, he was amazed by the clouds at Ali Mountain and the breathtaking views on the eastern coast.
Fu said that before 25, he worked at his desk, but after 25, nature was his teacher.
His eldest son, Fu Li-sheng, says that the painter traveled extensively to do sketches at scenic places such as Kenting and along the Suao-Hualien Highway; and because transportation then was not good, his father cycled first, then transferred to bushes and then to trains.
Fu Li-sheng says his father loved calligraphy so much that he practiced it almost every day. "I used to play with classmates in front of my home, and I always saw my father writing at his desk by the window."
The other part of the exhibition focuses on Fu's social circle, which included prominent artists, such as Chen Zhifo, Xu Beihong and Feng Zikai.
Fu received from them paintings and letters which are also on display.
