Xu Wei's poetry, calligraphy and painting have developed in an all-round way and he is quite conceited about calligraphy. He believes that his freehand brushwork of flowers and birds originated from calligraphy cultivation, and once said that "freehand brushwork began when cursive script prevailed." Art is even more provocative, "not seeking the rhyme of survival". Although it is scribbled at random, it is full of interest. He likes to make ink-and-wash grape peony, which is a metaphor for his lack of talent. He expresses his laziness through things and compares things with people. Later, many famous painters, such as Shi Tao, Badashanren, Zheng Banqiao and Wu Changshuo, followed suit.
In his anthology, there is a comment:
Qifeng Cliff, hanging water, strange rocks, pine and cypress, secluded guests, mostly ink drops, full of haze.
Paper is boundless and dense as land. Hundreds of beautiful calyx, dry branches, moist ink, fresh color.
Flying sounds and living, moving like life, having fun and making love, working and relaxing, thinking is a wonderful product.

Steep peaks, waterfalls, rugged rocks and pine trees stand tall. Those hermits and
Taoist priests are mostly dripping this ink, full of paper fog, empty without seeing the sun, or dense forests in Mishan.
Works that can't see the earth are all top grades. In fact, whether it is a bunch of flowers or a dead branch; Use ink
Moisturizing like rain and dew, with bright colors. No matter what happens, birds perch on trees.
They are lifelike, pleasing to the eye, edifying temperament, neat, fine, elegant and vivid, that's all.
