*Editing* 

Art can be beautiful and disturbing. Sculptures can be made from clay, but never flesh. In this circumstance, art is debated and adored. Will an artist be able to put himself into his work with no self-portrait?

Donatella Claire, an art student, and blogger who sought out new material for her website. Finally living the dream and discovering artworks of all kinds, she stumbles upon an artwork drenched in solitude. The Louvre has many historical works on display but refuses to publicize one in particular. 

'An artwork without emotion is no artwork': Edvard Munch.
But one may ask, what then, is art?: Marcel Duchamp.

Her love for art threatens her relationship, her passion for it causes her to face her mistakes. Her determination drives her into the supernatural. What happens next, is left on the sketchpad.

"Am I going to break you, Case? Or are you bamboo?" The days are dry and hot, school is out, and all 17-year-old Case wants to do is party hard with his friends over the Fourth of July weekend. But when a drug deal goes wrong, his plans for an epic summer vacation are cut short. Case is taken captive, driven halfway across the country, and locked in a basement he can't escape. No one knows he is missing. No one knows where he is. No one is coming to save him. With his life on the line, Case is forced into an abusive relationship with his captor. But when his own thoughts begin to betray him, twisting hope with despair, and fear with love, can Case truly survive long enough to escape?

The Folveshch by FinnyH

[Formerly Featured/Award-Winning Novella/#2 in Horror] There is something eerie about this village -- this hole of silent, maddened people. In 1922 my Papa told me of a faceless entity that lurks amongst us in our isolated slice of Russia. The locals have kept this horror alive for a century, though the only ones who claim to have seen the Folveshch have succumbed to a life of sightless silence. My name is Stefan Alyovich and the people around me are changing. They slip into worsening madness every winter, and I ask myself: how much longer before I'm the only sane one left? ... The only one left alone with the Folveshch. ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟- ↟ • 21,000 word novella • Rank #2 in Horror • Rank #4 in Mystery • Horror winner of Greatbelt U.F Award 2015 • CBY October Book of the Month 2014 • The Cryptic Awards Best Horror Winner 2017 • Wattpad HQ Winter Escapes Reading List • Wattpad HQ Stranger Things Reading List • Fright Top Horror/Featured Horror/Stranger Things Reading Lists • Mystery Paranormal Mystery Reading List • ThePurgeMovie Urban Legends Reading List • TheGallowsMovie Best of Thrillers Reading List • Blairwitchmovie Top Horror/Thriller Reading List • OuijaMovie Top Horror Reading List • IncarnateMovie Top Horror ↟- ↟ - ↟ - ↟- ↟- ↟ - ↟ - ↟ - ↟- ↟ - ↟ - ↟ - ↟ - ↟-

To Steal a Weeping Widow by BritishGravity

Someone stole the Weeping Widow. The priceless artwork is gone, ripped from its place on the wall and leaving only broken glass behind. The pride of Whitehill Museum and Art Gallery fell victim to heists in the night, and the museum is determined to find the painting and nail the culprit. She's been labelled the main suspect after being found at the scene of the crime. He's been hired to protect Whitehill and keep the rest of the art safe. Both with a job to do at the museum, and both determined to fix broken reputations. But the biggest question of all haunts the exhibits they roam: who stole the Weeping Widow? They painted her the villain. He's learning art is open for interpretation. -------------------------- "Art is to be seen, not touched." His breath curled next to my ear. "But I'd do anything to touch you." "Are you saying I'm art?" My heart knew no limit as it pulsed in my throat, right where his lips began to hover. "As beautiful as what hangs in the Louvre, and just as forbidden to touch." Disclaimer: all works depicted above the chapters are real works, and some real works are mentioned throughout. However, some works and artists described within the story are fictional.

Things seem to be going great for you. You have a stable job as a doctor at the prison, you have a pretty good house that you live in. AND ITS ALMOST DA SPOOKY MONTH but you have your attention on something's else this year. Or rather.. Someone. The serial killer and infamous cannibal is unfortunately your newest patient, he seems nice enough. From the rumours you heard around the work place about how dangerous and deranged he is it confuses how nice and obedient he is towards you. Your sure you can rehabilitate him soon if he keeps behaving! Maybe even before Halloween comes around! Right...? (No art belongs to me unless said otherwise.) (Also sry I keep changing the cover I swear this is the last time-)

Under My Skin by FantasyByGioVanna

Single after three years, Lucia Giordano moves back in with her parents. To satisfy her nosy aunt, Lucia agrees to meet Enzo Vitale, her aunt's sexy new neighbor, for coffee. Enzo takes Lucia's breath away and her entire world turns on its head. Not long after she realizes there is more to Enzo than he let on. Enzo's familial connections threaten Lucia's safety. As she fights her undeniable attraction to Enzo, Lucia's haphephobia takes center stage in her life. However, that's not all that stands between Lucia and her survival. Her forgotten childhood could reveal that she is more involved in Enzo's dangerous world than she ever imagined. ❌⭕️❌⭕️ Trigger warning: This book contains graphic violence, gore, murder, sexual themes, physical, verbal, and emotional abuse, dark narrative, self-harm, and psychological trauma. Although a lot of inspiration was taken from my life (surprising?), this story and all characters depicted are fictional. I do suffer from generalized anxiety disorder and panic disorder. Those themes were inspired by my experiences. ❌⭕️❌⭕️ This book started as practice and a creative outlet, which is why the plot is... interesting. My goals for this challenge are listed below, let me know if I nailed them! Goals: ✔️ 50,000 words (2,000 - 2,500 per chapter) ✔️ Dabble in psychological themes ✔️ Bring a dark twist to the Mafia Romance genre ✔️ Limit the use of profanities (which this genre is known for :P) ✔️ Finish my first novel
