  • My name is Breanna Edwards and I am a designer & illustrator. I started drawing at a very young age and yes growing up Art was my favorite subject in school. With my talent I can create breathtaking illustrations. Art is something I’ve been passionate about my whole life, so it made sense to pursue a degree in something I love. My major is Visual Communication & Digital Media Arts with a concentration in Advertising design.

    Growing up I loved reading and as I got older, I turned to magazines to enjoy and collected a few of them. I began to get into Editorial Design and decided that I should create a zine. Thus, DEBUT Zine was born.
