If I disappear, it's because @dgjones locked me in his dungeon again.

We are making a new book.
He locks me up, leaves me without water and food, and only allows me to go out after I colorize 4 huge and complicated photos.

Thought you should know.
See? I have proof.

This photo was taken before he had his hair transplant. @dgjones Image

"In homes with usually only one room, the box-bed allowed some privacy and helped keep people warm during winter. Box-beds were also used to protect people of the home from the animals (pigs, hens) also living in the house."

Billie Holiday and Mister, February 1947. He accompanied her to glamorous Harlem nightspots, where people brought him plates of thick steak while she performed.

Colorized for BILLIE, available on November 13th. Watch the trailer: marinamaral.com/billie-officia…
Lena Horne once said that “her animals were her only trusted friends".

"There was the beloved Standard Poodle who, on his death, was wrapped in Billie’s best mink coat for the cremation, and the Chihuahua puppy she fed with a baby bottle in her New York apartment."
I will never delete these two photos
