Google Doodle for Sunčana Škrinjarić’s 84th Birthday

Dec 11, 2015


Sunčana Škrinjarić’s 84th Birthday


Upon wandering into the forest and establishing his easel beneath the shade of an elm tree, Peter Palette begins to paint. Feeling dreamy, he gives up his work in favor of a nap, and abruptly slips into a deep sleep. This elm tree, as it happens, is enchanted; when he awakes, he suddenly finds himself speaking with the creatures of the forest.

So begins the inspiration for today’s Doodle, and the book that made Sunčana Škrinjarić one of Croatia’s most beloved storytellers. Lydia Nichols remembers the author on her 84th birthday with some imagery from her greatest tale, Čudesna šuma, which she created using screen printing techniques and a simple, vibrant palette. Here’s to magic, whimsy, and our favorite childhood stories.

Google Doodle for Whina Cooper’s 120th Birthday

Dec 9, 2015


Whina Cooper’s 120th Birthday


When she was 18, Whina Cooper organized her first demonstration, rallying a small group to protest the leasing of land where the Maori people traditionally fished. When she was close to 80, Cooper led another protest, this time organizing thousands of people on a landmark march from the Far North to Parliament in Wellington to publicly decry the loss of millions of acres of Maori land. 

Not only did the march unite many different groups--a major feat at the time--, but it also attracted significant national attention, taking public awareness of Maori land rights to new heights.

Whina Cooper was an activist for most of her life. She fought tirelessly for the rights of Maori people, especially women, serving as the first president of the Maori Women’s Welfare League. In recognition of her efforts, she was made a Dame of the British Empire in 1981, and a member of the Order of New Zealand in 1991. 

Today, on what would have been her 120th birthday, we honor Dame Whina Cooper with a Doodle that pays tribute to her most historic achievement, that famous land march. Doodler Olivia Huynh took inspiration from photos of the time, highlighting the fact that the march involved people of all ages, all brought together by a passionate and tenacious leader: Whina Cooper.

Google Doodle for Mother's Day 2015 (Panama)

Dec 8, 2015



Mother's Day 2015 (Panama)



Happy Mother’s Day to mothers of all shapes, sizes, and species! Today’s Doodle represents the universality of familial love. I had a few separate concepts, some with animals, some with people, and looking at them all, I thought it would be fun to try to tie them together.

Brainstorming for this Doodle and thinking of my own mom, lots of small moments and gestures of affection came up, so I decided to concentrate on that as a concept. When I started to sketch, early ideas included (but were not limited to) giraffes, gardening, and tossing children into pools.

I spent awhile trying to figure out how I could use style to keep the characters somewhat minimalistic and relatable since Mother’s Day is celebrated all around world.

Once I settled on the concept I did a quick rough pass at animation to make sure it would work visually. I decided to go with a watercolor texture because I think there’s something very comforting and familiar about it, that shows a more human hand.

Thank you, moms, for bearing us, and bearing with us, every step of the way.

Google Doodle for Matilde Pérez's 99th Birthday

Dec 7, 2015



Matilde Pérez's 99th Birthday


Borrowing ideas from the kinetic style that made Matilde Pérez an internationally recognized artist, Nate Swinehart added some movement to today’s homepage. 

Born in 1916, Pérez painted and sculpted into her nineties, using the interplay of abstract shapes and sharp colors to create optical and aesthetic effects of motion. 

Today would have been her 99th birthday. Feliz cumpleaños, Matilde.

Google Doodle for Finland National Day 2015

Dec 6, 2015



Finland National Day 2015


Today is itsenäisyyspäivä, Finland's Independence Day. Doodler Alyssa Winans and her colleague in Helsinki illustrated today's design with a cozy-looking home flying the siniristilippu (blue-cross flag).

Many Finns do indeed stay indoors for this holiday: they gather around televisions to watch a national broadcast of Tuntematon sotilas (The Unknown Soldier), a film based on the novel by Väinö Linna

They're also entertained by live coverage of the Independence Day Reception, an annual event at the Presidential Palace that honors veterans and attracts glamorous guests. 

This year, the chosen theme for the party was "culture". And to that, we raise our glasses. Kippis!

Google Doodle for Father's Day 2015 (Thailand)

Dec 5, 2015


Father's Day 2015 (Thailand)

Happy Father’s Day to dads of all shapes, sizes, and species! Today’s Doodle represents the universality of familial love.  I had a few separate concepts, some with animals, some with people, and looking at them all, I thought it would be fun to try to tie them together.
I was working on Mother’s and Father’s day simultaneously, so it made sense to keep them in a similar style and theme. Plus, once I started coming up with animal-related antics it was hard to stop. 
Once I settled on the concept I did a quick rough pass at animation to make sure it would work visually. I decided to go with a watercolor texture because I think there’s something very comforting and familiar about it, that shows a more human hand.
Thank you to dads everywhere, for carrying us until we've learned to stand on our own, and sometimes even after.

Google Doodle for Teacher's Day 2015 (Panama)

Teacher's Day 2015 (Panama)


A true teacher is one who, keeping the past alive, is also able to understand the present” -Confucius

Teachers are our mentors, friends, and catalysts. They’re the wild, eager sparks that can, with a word, set our passions ablaze. Not quite parents, they nevertheless raise us to be the very best versions of ourselves. 

And their impressions last lifetimes, as the lessons we’ve learned are passed down to others, like inheritances of wisdom. Today, let’s celebrate teachers, one of the noblest and most selfless of callings all across the world.

Happy Teacher’s Day!
