我与许莹在美院同窗四年，向来欣赏她的才华横溢、洒脱的性格。毕业后她在美院先后师从田黎明、李少文老师一直念到博士，而我去了东京艺大。一别就是十余载。再见许莹的画，真让我从心底感到喜欢得不得了。毫不夸张的说，她刷新了我对当代水墨人物画的印象。我惊讶她的作品数量之多。钦佩她的勤奋努力。在这个诱惑众多的时代能把自己关在画室里埋头于创作是多麽难得，而更可贵的是她对每一张作品都是那么真诚。我相信看了她对画中人物细致入微的描绘，大家也一定会被她的真诚所打动。她的作品有功力而不落于俗套；构图、造型严谨而不失灵动潇洒；主张了自我而不哗众取宠；有时代气息而不肤浅浮躁。每一个线条，每一道色彩都完全成了她自己的语言，给我们讲述着现代都市中新的故事。卢思
