It's a little hard to see because it needs to be resized, but I'll ignore that for the review.

Okay, so I like the darkness, and the resolution of the picture, because it makes it look dirty and gritty, which goes with the theme. The only thing I might change about it is make the head of the rose bend a little less, just because I think you'd be able to see it better. Also if you made the lighting a little brighter you could see the petals more. But that's up to you. Overall, I think it's a really nice picture. :)

Hello there
Very nice. I'm not an art expert so there is nothing I'm gonna suggest but just comment on what I thought. I like the colour of the picture in general. It's very edgy and reminds me of something from a goth sort of setting.
Good Job

Hey pencilgirl,

Now this image definitely describes unhappiness in ones heart. I like your choice of colours, really simple ' black and white '.. Black is my favourite colour and it can represent many things not just the negative side.

Here the rose is black which is usually red, leaving me with the impression that something so delicate and precious to some, can lose it's colour and be left looking dull on the outside. The rose looks crinkly and withered that can be compared to the unhappiness in ones heart, because when a heart is broken and goes through unpleasant experiences, those who feel this way usually say ' I feel like I'm withering away '. Just because you look attractive either male or female, someone can use you for your attractiveness and leave you once they feel as if you are no longer appealing to them. Similar to the rose because a rose is symbolic for its beauty (hence attractiveness), and once it loses it's beauty it is thrown away. Therefore the black rose can symbolise ' dark beauty ' or yes unhappiness in something so delicate.

Sorry for the long review, I hope I didn't drift off the point :)

Lovely picture and representation btw ^.^
