The Painters Death Wish
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 without a 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, stumbles upon an artwork drenched in solitude. The Lourve has many historical works on display but refuses to publicize one in particular.
Her love for art threatens her relationship, her passions cause her to make many mistakes and her determination will drive her into the paranormal. What happens next, is left on the sketchpad.

Grabbing his phone torch; he lit his way through the gallery.The air was dry, and his sinuses gnawed at him. He sneezed so hard he stumbled into something near the wall. It was wet paint.

Chapter: Do y*u know who I amNo matter the room, the smell of rotting flesh followed him like a shadow. He had to steady himself on the walls, trying to escape the voices. Fervent wailing and inaudible speech vibrated all around him.

Chapter: Among the noiseHis ribs convulsed with every breath as he sat on the edge of the bed with his hands on his knees. Sweating profusely he tried to stand but rocked his way back to the bed.
