Hi, I'm Ed. If you're wondering how I got on this crew, well, clearly I bugged them relentlessly until...they buckled. Few things about me: I'm monotone, I love hot sauce, and I make awkward comments. But recently I've been doing some stencils, some of them can be "live".

Seeing that I was very bored one day, Hunter took it on himself to show me how to make a stencil. That night I made Kyp of TV on the Radio from a two-page spread in Fader magazine.

I was more than stoked.

Two days later there was Michael Caine. Hunter added the on-point yellow outlining.

I'll post more of my stencils when they're finished and probably whenever I'm drunk too. I've realized I really need to step my game up, so stay on this blog; upcoming ideas include: "A Love Triangle", "Apocalyptic Nude", "Oedipus Rex", and "Gods".

We have another show coming up at the end of March. It's on a fourth friday along with other artists in the gallery. The artists that will be shown in our room will include Myself, Hunter (zebrahead), Stuart Dumais (who will be added to the team soon), and our friend Sam V. Nothing of grave importance has occured in the last few weeks. We added our friend Ed to the team due to the fact that he makes some "live ass" stencils. Hopefully he will see this post and decide to upload those pictures and share them.

So the art show was pretty gnarly. Hunter didn't complete anything so he didn't get to put anything up. I sold some of my stuff. But basically we are back to being in school and doing [stupid shit] Here are some pictures from the show.

So over the past week Hunter and I have researched giving tattoo's. As we learned more about it we realized we had the materials to give them ourselves. So we prepared the entire week and then Friday night we decided to make out attempt. At first it was difficult to find other people other then Hunter and myself to actually recieve the tattoo's but as the week progressed we found others considering it. Our Friend Drew Jacobs and Jessica Crawford. Here are some pictures.

[This is me giving Hunter his tattoo. It turned out kind of shitty cause I was too nervous about breaking someones skin. And I felt like an asshole the entire time as im sure Hunter did while doing mine]

I woke up kind of ill today it could be the thought of getting a prison tattoo tonight or it could be the weather. Being our first blog I feel compelled to say something inspirational about what we at Valiant Zebra are planning on doing in the next few months.
[Hunter and I have a show coming up next weekend. February 10th, in Virginia Beach. At the moment I will be representing us and taking both our pieces down. The show is being held by Illusive Media. We basically got lucky cause my cousin, Shomi, is putting the show together.]

[We have another show on the fourth Friday of March with a few of our friends, Sam V. And Stuart D. nothing really to say about that seeing as it's only February]

[Hunter and I will be giving ourselves and a few of our friends some tattoo's tonight kind of nervous///excited. It should be interesting]

I'll probably make an update after we get some more work done. We have been doing some basic things like building panels and drinking coffee and scheming. I'll leave you with a few pictures.
