Description
A few days ago I met and old friend of mine. We have a few beers and talked about old times, particularly schooltimes. We were both victims of bullying when we were younger. Have you ever had that feeling where it feels like everyone thrust something so deep under your skin, that you just can't seem to pull it out?Edit:
Just to make sure you all get my thanks, thank you. I appreciate it so very much.

Daniel, I just finished carefully browsed through your stunning gallery. This one, I've selected as my favorite. I was attracted right away with the simplicity of color. I love how the green apple stands out so vividly against the stark white, even in the thumbnail version. Even before I clicked on the full-view, I knew this one was a real gem. Compositionwise, this piece is real strong.
What really makes this piece though is the idea behind it. You've crafted a nice message, and you've portrayed that message perfectly. There's a nice blend of nails that are sticking both in and out, and that's a nice detail that I appreciate. The chain is a perfect touch. The feeling of getting picked on is emphasized with helpless suspension.
My only small gripe is that there's a nail that overlaps part of the chain. I'm not sure why, but it bugs me slightly. The final thing I want to bring up is your presentation. Zeta once told me that presentation is everything, and it's so true. The border you've picked is perfect, as well as your signature for the picture. Very nice and professional. All in all, a great piece and definite

Excellent composition 
In an earlier comment someone suggested that you use a red apple, but I think the green works well. It represents goodness, and makes us question why it should be being totured with the nails! I love it +fav

>sniff< My school years were he#$, too. I've still got that something's-puncturing-puncturing-down-t o-your-bone feeling since my fifth grade year. I still remember it like when you have a nightmare and just wake up from it. Snobs, filthy scabs, the whole army of 'em all over me. This art sxpresses that all too well.

i know how it feels but not so much like this...
i stick up for people which is what causes me to be targeted, but i don't care. i'll take the blows. doesn't affect me, any!
good luck with the rest of your life, though! and nice shot by the way! very intense!
