During childhood, I passed by Xiluo Temple every time I went to school. The familiar imagery of a mother carrying her child whilst buying fruits, hawkers selling snacks, and little shops to buy cold drinks appear.

 The lines of the old tree are drawn through a curved Cubism technique, showing quirky characteristic to the painting.

童年時上學必定經過的西羅殿前,有揹小孩買水果的台灣婦女、兜售零食的小販、販賣冷飲的小店等景象。作者以彎曲立體技法表現老樹的姿態,別有趣味。
