刘勐靠多年的努力奋斗，靠良好的悟性和自我才智的有效发挥。创作出一大批另人惊喜的力作。他把自己较为得心应手的传统写实能力与当代创作理念和手法、审美理念相融合，使自己从中获得了无限的快乐和生机，一种迫不及待的创作欲望时时催促和鼓舞着他走向经典，走向艺术王国的高端。刘勐的油画创作在经历了近二十年的摸索之后，进入了人生中最佳的势态，悄然崛起、出类拔萃。
刘勐的横幅三联油画风景《大西山》以辽阳核伙沟四组“大西山”为生活依托，以作者对生活中实在着的“大西山”的感悟和拖物起点、借物抒怀为支撑，够思沉静、庄重，不浮不燥；构图炼达简括；色彩素雅平实、淡定；看的出作者在思考良久之后，有意强调画面那种淡淡的、略显孤独和不声张的自然整体境界及艺术追求，而淡化画面的色彩关系，只突出其黑白的和谐与比较美，不只具有一种永恒的意味，也从而提纯和净化了视觉环境，愈发使作品得到整体语言上的突显。
油画风景画《大西山》。肃穆而庄严，给人以很强的艺术感染力，也同时带给人们许多莫名的联想和思考。谁都清楚：油画风景《大西山》，是一幅相当不错的好作品。画的不空不腻，饱满充实；更为主要的是作者寓情于物，使作品具有了文化上的意义和精神上的高度。这类高层次的油画风景画创作在当今已经凤毛麟角，不多见了。
在同年的辽宁画院成立二十五周年院展中，刘勐作为辽宁画院院聘画家亦有佳作于社会见面。他的油画人物画“四条屏”《发廊》以表现当代都市新潮风尚切入现实生活，以耐特的构图和基本不饱和的灰色块组织成画面，恰似音乐中的半音组合，从中唤起观众视觉知觉的美感刺激，给人以即熟悉又生疏，既另类又宜人的默认和充分的肯定。《发廊》构图的重大突破也为作品的成功，起到了至关重要的作用。以“0”距离大背影青年美发师毋庸置疑的体感和量感向人们解读着当代中的一切变革的肯定性和不确定性；并用那些专于美发时尚的男女青年的身段举止向人们述说着今天的故事。《发廊》作者勇敢地站在与画中人物同一文化平台上，以平淡、轻松、宽容和由衷地愉快，告诉《发廊》的读者们：人世间没有绝对的平庸和伟大。平庸的很快活，那就是一种自醉和满足，是一种畅畅然、悠悠然的伟大胸怀和实践。
