About me

My name is Gabrielle, I graduated last summer with a BA Hons degree in Creative Advertising, which I obtained from Leeds University Of Art. I am currently in a Marketing Management role for a small cleaning and home organising business based in London and I'm looking to build my career. I'm always looking for new opportunities and experience! I also run a small Illustration account on Instagram where I explore LGBTQ identity and body positivity @theuglypengz .

Projects

• Advertising - University projectsHere is a selection of some of my favourite print Ads which I designed during my studies at lEEDS arts University. You can see more of my work in my portfolio https://gc263399.wixsite.com/gcarneyportfolio .
• Original songs & AnimationIn my spare time I write and record short songs to go with simple animations that I create with my Illustrations. I am also currently working with a few producers and writers in order to record and release official tracks.
• The Ugly PengzI have developed an Illustration style which I have titled ' The Ugly Pengz' and I have launched an Instagram page that showcases queer bodies. As a queer person I have always struggled to see myself represented in art and design especially when it comes to aesthetic/cute graphics and illustrations. I also write and record short songs which I use to create animations. This is something I eventually want to turn in to merchandise, I want to create 'Ugly Mugs' and 'Peng T Shirts' in order to raise
