Born in Shanghai, China. The reason he felt interested in Chinese painting was because of his father Kunbo Ku, the calligrapher and educator. He learned painting from his father from ten years old until he was twenty. Afterward, he stopped painting and began working in Hong Kong. The time to paint became smaller but he often went to visit art exhibitions and museums in order to observe the specialty of different painters. He is an art collector and keeps many works of famous historic calligraphies, paintings and brushes, papers, ink sticks and ink stones. He started painting again after he retired. In 1988, he held a solo exhibition in Shanghai Institute of Chinese painting and was invited as the honorable instructor. In 1990, he held an exhibition at the China National Academy of Fine Arts and he was also hired as the painting instructor. He is one of the consultants of CCAFV.
